A Wee Escape

I've told you in other posts about the many ravines crisscrossing Toronto and most of the time you can't see much in them for all the trees. This ravine near Casa Loma is crossed by a bridge so you can look down and especially with no leaves on the trees you can see many things that are invisible all summer. This lovely little gazebo belongs to a house that is out of the pic up to the left. I can just imagine sitting out there in nice weather listening to the birds, surrounded by green, and just escaping the world for a bit!

One of the great things about Toronto is how close you can be to nature if you look for it.

It's a tiny little wilderness respite in the middle of the city. Perfect.

A nice spot to get away from it all.

This is delightfully unexpected! It looks so tiny at first I thought it was a birdhouse!

I really like this photo and the capture of it makes me see more than one thing. Imagine if that were a bird feeder? Or in a wee little fairy garden, I believe I could be fooled! I like that when a photo makes me really look inside!

Looks like a nice peaceful private spot.

What a gorgeous site...too bad it's not in sight more months of the year! :) I'll bet it would make a good wedding site, too!

It would be like being a little kid again, hiding out in a treehouse. Sweet!

Michelle said...

We all need a secret place to think . . .

Great place from which to observe the arrival of spring.

I think it needs some color.

Wow .. it would be worth the trek to set up a little picnic in that conservatory.

Everyone needs some solitude. Having here is a bonus.
