When I saw this picture I took the other day, I had a distinct sense of deja-vu, so I apologize if this is a re-run.
My kids call this area of Toronto’s High Park, The Maze. And while it’s certainly not a challenging puzzle, the geometric patterns make it an interesting place to spend some time on a sunny afternoon.
I took this shot a few months ago – today was a beautiful, sunny day – but I didn’t have anything new to post today, and I like the look of the clouds in this image. It was taken on the north-west corner of the city, an area where farming fields still sprinkle the landscape.
I came across this dino sculpture sitting in the middle of a gas station parking lot in west side of the city. There was no apparent reason for its presence, other than perhaps as an object of curiosity for rush hour commuters.
I happened to be at a meeting yesterday down next to the CN Tower, and at one point found myself standing right at the base of, looking up at one of the tallest built structures in the world. Of course, this view is familiar to most Toronto tourists who take the elevator rides to the lookout and restaurant at the top.

Toronto has had almost no snow this winter – until yesterday. It started in the evening around 5pm, when this picture was taken. As soon as the snow started to fall, the playground was abondoned by the local kids for the nearby sledding hills.
