oh coffee time!

A little while ago I had a picture
of a 'no pets' sign in the window
of my local Coffee Time. It was
a silly picture because they used
a stock photo of a wildcat.

Well now that photo is gone,
and this is their new sign.

I guess the problem wasn't with wild lynx
coming into the shop for a coffee,
but with adorably cute puppies.

I've never seen anything 'adorably cute'
in that Coffee Time, so I don't see the problem.

blue rodeo

Blue Rodeo sings some sad songs.

And maybe soon there'll come a day
When no more tears will fall
We each forgive a little bit
And we both look back on it
It's just bad timing that's all

We each forgive a little bit
And we both look back on it
It's just bad timing that's all


Sorry about these moody posts,
but I'll get back to parkdale photos soon.
Good thing the spring is here, and the sun s shining.

here's something fun to make up for my melancholy mood

The day before the Equinox

Remember last sping when the grass was green?
Come on spring... any time now.

Yes I take lots of snaps of "horse cops".
I don't refer to them as 'cops on horseback'
because I think of the horse as an officer of the law too.

This one pulled over a car for making
an illegal left turn at King / Atlantic.
This is one of the 'Quota Corners'.

In Like A Lion....

March roared in like a Lion.
Here's a power "crüe" on Cowan.

The Crüe on Dunn Ave left Elmo
as a marker for low power lines.

I've always wondered if giving a
Police Horse a slice of an apple
would be considered bribery?
