Another hot and humid day for 53 Seniors to stretch their legs through some of Toronto's scenic parks. Kevin reversed his usual role of Sweeping taking the reins as today's Leader.
The meeting point was the grounds of the Northern Secondary School at the corner of Mt. Pleasant Road and broadway Avenue
And her comes our Leader
We took the short walk to the entrance of Sherwood Park where Jim patiently waits
Kevin gathers the group around him for today's itinerary
Kevin turns up the volume to improve his hearing
A variety of fungi
Into the park we go
Pause for a pee
We follow the Burke Brook
Germaine takes the count
Kevin the "Happy Wanderer" leads the group into Blythewood Ravine park
Entering Alexander Muir Park
Heading back through Blythewood Ravine Park
The light only shines on the righteous
After walking down Blythewood Road we pause at the Sunnybrook Hospital
We get turned around at the Hospital construction site
We finish our tour of the hospital
And head down to Sunnybrook Park
There's a mad dash to find a picnic spot with shade
Time to set out
And climb the hill out of the park
Taking on water and some shade before we tackle the path through Mount Hope Cemetery
Leaving the Cemetery
The hike officially ends at Erskine Avenue and Mt. Pleasant Road
Those that wished to replenish their liquid intake settle for the Granite brewery
Kevin took care of us upfront just like he does when he sweeps. Fortunately the parks provided plenty of shade to keep the participants relatively comfortable making it an enjoyable days outing
