Field Trip: Taylor Creek Trail

Ever wonder what's beneath the bane of Toronto's existence Don Valley Parkway?

You may know of the Don River; but have you actually had the chance to explore this little gem in the city?   

At one moment you are walking through the tree-lined path, over a creaky wooden bridge, listening to the river flow. Then, all of a sudden you're making your way through the underpass, observing a gallery of graffiti and city signs. 

Taylor Creek Park is a magical land where nature collides with concrete... with rivers, plants, wildlife and bridges... cyclists, joggers, dogs and neighbours.

It's peaceful.

my backyard


 

rather lovely and peaceful isn't it? the bulldozers and constant hammering. the gross men constantly yelling. it's like music to my ears. who needs birds chirping, anyway?

bits + pieces | part two

This past weekend was great. Got to spend some time with a cousin and her two little girls. Juliana is 3 months old now, so I can finally hold her. Huh?  Well... I have a small fear of holding delicate newborns and 3 months sounds like a good, strong number.

It actually felt kinda... dare I say it... natural.  

Sunday was Mother's day. Mamma and I cooked up a fun brunch (yes she even likes to cook on HER day), and spent the afternoon enjoying the backyard sun.

Spring time at my parents house means the family of ducks comes to lay their eggs. They spend the season in our pool while tending to their nearby nests. They've been doing this since I was a child. 

Ella joined Sonny and the dogs for a little rest on the grass.

my favourite part of any day

watching baby's little actions got to me... uh oh. am i getting baby fever?

homeward bound... the end of a pleasant weekend.
