Lovely and sporty High Park.

Everyone was on time for my 50th TOC event

After brief chit chat, introductions, signing waivers and collecting monies we headed off to the trails.

We walked through the open dog areas, dense forested paths, sand hills, around the organic community garden, some very bushy over grown trails, up some more hills, to Colborne Lodge, up the road, around the groomed flower gardens overlooking the tall trees and manicured water ponds, to the water fountains, around the paved paths and ducks to Grenadir Pond, around Lakeshore Blvd to the Waterfront trail, a fast walk up to the bridge(the ladies were impressed with the scenery ...of some muscular roller bladder men!) Anyways...we continued around the gravel paths and butterfly conservatory to west humber bay park, stopped for a light picnic dinner, took in the cold wind and waves... returned to the park in the dark and up some steep stairs and all the way up colborne lodge drive to the starting point.

Phew!

We finished at 9:27pm with 3 minutes to spare. So we chatted about Anita’s quest for future nude TOC events(apparently she’s really into “nature walking”)...

Oh and...

Welcome to four new TOC members: Joanna, Andrea, Laura and Robin. Thanks to Victor and Anita for the fruits and cookies. Last and not least, we had NO RAIN!
