Our first stop was at MacGregor Park on Lansdowne Ave. just north of College St. and West Toronto Collegiate. It looks like these colourful benches on the south side of the park were painted by students from the school.

I wanted to go out and buy a magazinbe at The Urbane Cyclist today.
Since it was nice enough outside, Jen and I decided to just walk downtown
and back instead of riding our bikes or taking the TTC. It was a nice
way to spend some time together and see the city at a slower pace. Our first stop was at MacGregor Park on Lansdowne Ave. just north of College St. and West Toronto Collegiate. It looks like these colourful benches on the south side of the park were painted by students from the school. |

Jen, looking at some photos pasted on the wall of the building in MacGregor Park. Looks like the community makes really good use of this park in the summertime, including the wading pool. |

Some doubled-up post-and-ring bike racks infront of West Toronto Collegiate on Lansdowne Ave. The city has started to double-up some of the racks because it turns out they are easy to break. |

A litter bin on someone's property at the corner of Palmerston Blvd. and Lennox St. The addition of the "NO DOG SHIT PLS." text made me laugh. |
