The Blue Brick | Inspired Yarns

I was having an off week, and this was the proverbial straw: I was helping some friends out with a shoot, and went to change the cameras position on the tripod. We had taken the strap off earlier so we could mount the camera to…

September in Toronto has had more beautiful days than both July and August this year. To take advantage of this gorgeous weather, Tito and I went hiking in Caledon over the weekend. We left home at 6:30 and were rewarded by arriving at the park just as the…

Found this gem on the boardwalk yesterday. I have never actually seen a cicada. I knew what they looked like from books, so you can imagine how happy I was to discover this lady (I know it’s a lady because of the pointed thorax, apparently…
