Fact, I love summer. Fact #2, I love Toronto. Fact #3: I love summers in Toronto.
This summer’s highlights include:
* Swimming down at Sunnyside Pool nearly every day (and I’ve got the crazy tan lines to prove it!)
* Picnicking up a storm in Trinity Bellwoods Park
* All of the Love Lettering Project love
* BBQs on my back deck (complete with a shooting star spotting!)
* Hearing the beautiful fairy-like tinkling of bike bells while 400+ cyclists head out to check out art with ArtSpin
* Watching the stunning lightning storm in August
* Bike posts turned into flower-based street art (um, AWESOME!)
* Oh-so-much brunch
* Biking along the Lakeshore from the very west end to the very east end at least three times a week
* Eating sun-warm tomatoes from my garden
* Making pickles out of cukes from my garden
* Working on my piece for The Paper Place‘s 6×8 exhibit
* The outpouring of love and support and public grieving of Jack Layton. So heart-breaking to say farewell to such a dynamic leader, but the huge amounts of love for him was inspiring
