Dear Friends,
You know spring is really
here when you have to fight for your space on the sidewalk. I really believe that the number of adults, babies and dogs on the streets of our city has doubled since last spring.
I never get tired of writing about the perils of being a simple pedestrian on sidewalks of mid/downtown
Toronto. Yesterday, squeezed amongst the bikers who bypassed me without notice,
the deluxe Cadillac baby carriages that occupy two lanes, and the hand-in-hand strolling
lovers, I realized, I will not miss Toronto at all! I rather live in a place
where people use the park to exercise and inhale fresh air, leaving the narrow sidewalks
for getting from point A to point B, preferably in a hurry, alone! Although I continue to
have doubts about pursuing a life of leisure, I’m surely looking forward to
leaving the city! Did I mention the pedlars, the beggars, the automobile horns, fumes and the cigarette
smoke?
