The March theme for the City Daily Photo blog community is ageing and rather than a self portrait, I present this old delivery truck which was spotted in the Distillery District and may have been used to deliver some of the local liquor. It is probably from the 1940s and the years look to have been hard on the old thing!

Another shot of the tree from the Christmas Market at the Distillery District just because I liked the old clock sitting by the tree and the Canadian flag blowing away in the sunshine up above. It was a cold north wind that morning!
At the Distillery Christmas Market they had a Ferris Wheel and this wonderful Carousel set up for the kids. Even though it was quite cold there were a lot of kiddies up for a ride!
Another post from the Christmas Market at the Distillery District gives a bit of a view of some of the 40 heritage-designated buildings found on the 13 acre site. This is the largest collection of Victorian-aged industrial buildings in North America although now they all house shops, galleries, studios, & restaurants rather than the Godderham & Worts distillery. The stalls for the market are set up along the 10 pedestrian streets running through the area. I was too early on a Sunday morning to try some mulled wine, unfortunately.
I finally made it down to our Christmas Market which takes place in the Distillery District, the old and wonderfully restored Gooderham & Worts Distillery. It was a cold but sunny Sunday morning when I went but the place was already very busy with families bundled up against the cold. I'll show some more pics for the next few days.
