wychwood park
fil doesn’t like his voice in videos (he claims to be shy) so that’s why it appears that i am constantly talking to myself in these things which, i essentially am, as he refuses to answer the ten million rhetorical and obvious questions i ask. anyway, wychwood park is a lush private hood between st. clair and davenport and you have to not only be fabulously wealthy to live there, you have to be invited or a crazy artist, i dunno, that’s what i’ve heard. you’re not supposed to drive through it like we did, or walk through, we always put on a great show of looking like we know someone who lives there or accidentally got lost and totally did not see the many private property signs. it is such a great looking neighbourhood and a marvel that it exists downtown (kind of) toronto.
so you’re welcome for this. in the summer it is gorgeous, and i’m sure autumn would have been primo for a little walkies through but steph (SHE FINALLY BLOGGED MY FERN!!) and i couldn’t get our shit together enough to make that happen. another cool thing is the wychwood barns just opened up and is now some sort of “artscape” thing, it used to be a ttc streetcar repair barn cute eh? thomas the tank engine much? that blogto article muses this area may be the next distillery, doubt it, but just maaaay be yeah? if the distillery weren’t so inconveniently located i’m pretty sure we’d go there more. anyway, wychwood barns, i bet the wychwood park residents have some major mixed feelings over its opening.
