100 YEAR OLD HERITAGE TREE ON RONCESVALLES

On one of my daily sites that I peruse, I saw that: On the east side of Roncesvalles is a hundred-year-old, four-storey-tall maple tree. Some local residents have nominated it for designation under the Ontario Heritage Tree Program, and they’ve made this fun little video to explain why.

On my way to take mom home this morning we drove down there and I took some shots:


























I took this pic as there is a really old pic of this area on the Vimeo
















Mom told me a story about how as little kids would walk all the way down Roncesvalles to Sunnyside amusement park (long gone) and then all the way back up Roncesvalles home.






















I used to live in High Park with a friend and here is a vintage 70's shot of the streetcar that she used to take to work - thought you would enjoy CLR















And here is a vintage shot of CLR helping me get my mukluk's on in High Park - snicker!
