This great face is painted on the entrance to a flat above a store along Dundas St W. What a nice greeting when you arrive home. The artist is Jarus who did the guy on the roof that I showed you a couple of weeks ago. Just click the Jarus label below to see it.

We had a very damaging wind storm a week ago which resulted in a huge number of fallen trees in the city. This large ancient oak tree was in the grounds of Spadina House and had a canopy that was probably about 50 ft in diameter. As you can see there is now nothing left standing. At least it was not near any hydro lines unlike in other areas of the city where the power was out for hours after the lines were pulled down by trees and branches. My power was out for about 5 hours.
I was in a store and looked out to see this lovely dog waiting for its human to come out of the store next door. He/she never took a glance away form the door until they finally came out. I think it is a Portuguese Waterdog which were popular here even before Obama got his.

Dinner at a diner that has been around since the 1930s is fun especially when the food is good. Both the food and the service are good at the Universal Grill on Dupont St.
This long courtyard cuts through the centre of an older apartment building on Roncesvalles and leads to the entrance far at the other end. I guess this also acts a tunnel to bring light into the interior units. Lots of bikes there too.
I was walking up Roncesvalles Ave in the Roncesvalles Village neighbourhood and spotted this great chalk drawing of a squirrel who was enjoying a coffee and waiting for its bagel from this cafe. The guy behind already has his.

If you are looking for a new style of hairdo this seems to be the place to go. And you can change colour every day! This was spotted on Queen St W in the Parkdale neighbourhood.
