Toronto, Ontario.

Ribbon cutting at @rightfootstudio and @nozotoronto at 370 Yonge Street. Location just south of Gerrard Street, north of Dundas Street is at the heart of Toronto. New hardwood floor, atmospheric lighting with dimmers, big screen monitors. Lots of well-wishers on a warm summer night. (Toronto) 20130601 2046

Flowers at York Cemetery, at conclusion of funeral in the extended family. The departed was attended by son and daughters, grandchildren, great grandchildren, cousins and friends. Beautiful spring day. (North York, Ontario) 20130604 1156

Distillery District Sketchbook Project. Queue for @SketchbookProj Mobile Library at the Distillery District seems long as compared to Toronto Public Library selections. Since people can check in their works, maybe that takes longer! (Trinity Square Toronto) 20130608 1431
