McBride Cycle...or what's left of it.

«« prev | next »»

Even though I never bought anything there and only set foot inside once in the four years I lived in the neighbourhood, it was too much for McBride Cycle and they closed up for good a week after I moved to Mississauga. That was in September, and this past weekend I helped my old roommate move and discovered that the building is being torn down. Here's what's left of McBride, which had been in business for 97 years in Toronto.

Who says a girl needs a ring? I think Veronica would be more than happy to show off the key that starts this car as an engagement present. I think I better start saving my pennies.

How many girls do you know that have a video game party for their birthday? Kendra did. Pretty cool. Here she is showing where I accidently whacked her with a Wii remote during tennis. Thanks for having us. More pics here .

-It is also Melissa's birthday today. I feel bad that I haven't got her anything yet. But I suppose the best gift I can give her tonight is being in bed before 6am.

For some reason I decided to leave the big camera at home for the Rheos last show. So here are a couple of blurry pics. What a great show, though. It's a shame to see this lineup break up.

Penultimate Rheostatics Show

We went down to the Horseshoe tavern last night to see The Rheostatics warm up for their farewell show tonight. Not some of my best shots, but this was the first time I have shot with this camera in such a crowded dimly lit bar.

Baby Clothes

When Ryan's mom went to dig out her wedding dress, she had to get through 2 kids' worth of baby clothes. A lot of people we know have babies on the way. So, to them, we dedicate this picture of Ryan's baby clothes.

While most of the snow may be gone here in town, there is still a hint of winter just north of the city at mom and dad's.

Melissa tipped me off to this lil dolphin(?) at St. Claire & Old Weston. The WWF sticker on the truck is a delightful touch.

Back on the "Q"

Yes folks, we've been hitting the Nyquil pretty hard. We are both bedridden with the flu. I am just posting this as I wait for my shift to sleep. We have developed this system of sleeping in shifts so we dont have to listen to the other moaning, coughing, hacking, yacking and all around fidgeting. Pretty ingenious eh?
