This is an unusual tree house.

It’s actually only a few blocks from where we live here in Toronto. It’s south of the Danforth.

Why someone would build a tree house in what looks like a dead try I have no idea. If my memory serves me correctly I do think it was the only big tree in that houses backyard so perhaps that’s why the tree house is there.

If I were a kid I’m not sure I’d like this tree house as much as if it were build in a live tree where my secret fort could be hidden from view.






Icy Van

We’ve had some bad weather here in Toronto recently, but luckily it hasn’t been bad enough to do this!

Can you imagine being the owner of this van?

It would probably take a week to get it free of the ice! How would you get it off anyway? Pots of warm water? A fire thrower? Any other ideas?

A whale of a wall

This is a photo that my wife took a year or so ago. We were driving in downtown Toronto along Lakeshore BLVD and I believe this mural is painted on the side of the Redpath sugar refinery building.

It’s a gigantic mural. The building is at least 100 feet tall and 50 feet wide if not even bigger and the mural covers the extent of one whole side of the building. It’s beautiful!

If that’s not original I don’t know what is!

Spontaneous dance

On Friday we went out with my wifes family to a Blue Jays baseball game at the Skydome or what’s now called the Rogers Center here in Toronto.

When we were leaving the game we passed a few guys playing music on the walkway leading back to the street from the stadium. One of the guys was playing an accordion and as you can see from the photo above it was a lively piece of music. People spontaneously began to dance as they passed the small band.

Who says we don’t know how to have fun here in Toronto?
