A visit by Joe

This past weekend I was graced by the illustrious Paddyjoe and Mrs. Joe.

They were in town for a Memorial Day weekend, catching a few baseball games at the Dome. I met up with them for dinner on Sunday night and spent the afternoon on Monday showing them the distillery district, my neighbourhood, the Riverdale Farm and the Necroplis... Lots of pictures were taken, here are a few.

I am hoping that Paddyjoe will post some of his when he gets his film developed.

We met at the fountain on Front Street. It is right next to the place where we had our group shot for the last Toronto TFP meetup.


Speaking of which, we went for dinner at Hernando's... this time I ate as well as drank... Mrs. Joe snapped this one (only the second shot in this thread not taken by me).


This is a coffee roaster located at Balzac's Coffee in the Distillery District.


Coffee roaster detail:


This is a cool sculpture down one of the back alleys... the more you look at the more you can see figures.


There were a couple of old and rusting trucks in a back alley:






An old bridge in the valley


a detail on that bridge


The Toronto Necropolis (City of the Dead) is full of facinating hisory









This is the Don River... it really is a cesspool but here it almost looks serene.


Look! It's Paddyjoe!
