Backyard peach tree blossoms

Our backyard peach tree looks great at this time of year with all of its blossoms out. We're really looking forward to having our own fresh peaches again.

Buskers at Dundas West Station

I got off the subway at Dundas West station on my way home from work, and happened to pass these buskers. Yeah...weird...but fun and quite good.

Friday evening sunset over the Junction Triangle, as seen from 229 Wallace Ave., a former hardware store being demolished to make way for new lofts.

Bruce's Fuzzy Bike

Bruce's Fuzzy Bike

Bruce's bike, last Sunday, during the Fuzzy Boundaries parade through our neighbourhood. Residents were encouraging each other to come out and vote to name our neighbourhood.

The name Junction Triangle ended up winning. Bruce was somewhat disappointed, as his favourite name "Fuzzy Triangle" didn't make the Top 10 cut.
