wow, char...trick or treating in that neck of the woods must have brought some decent candy
i'll bet the pool at the ravine home must get a few leaves, neat anecdote
it's been posted before but i love Steve Earles best story ever, i take it this was at the Rosedale home before Gord moved...i'd loved to hear the little jam they had:

who took the video footage in 2001 (the clips that i was sent for the FOL montage? i didn't see scaffolding in the clip)
i can't believe the turret reno has been going on for 8 years, sounds like the prolonged type of renos i do, lol
i didnt' see a for sale sign at that end house but i was more focused on finding out how to turn around and also keeping an eye out for dobermans...i even know Toronto and that area fairly well and i still get lost! if any are visiting town, i would recommend parking at the Brickworks lot and walking the footpath up the ravine...if you look in the Don River you can see mutations of former pet goldfish that have turned into metre long carp...there's even a sign that asks folks not to release their unwanted pets, especially exotic ones into the area
