Day 28 – Are people really this disgusting?
Today, I’m taking a break from this strike, so I thought I’d relish you with stories of our walk yesterday where we noticed this fence in Cabbagetown. It seemed a dog owner has taken to leave his furry friend’s leftovers behind on a display… I didn’t have the nerves to go and pick them off the fence to throw them away in the nearest garbage bin. I was quite surprised to see this in that particular location, it’s very residential, very neighbourly, busting with a constant flow of people, and especially very disrespectful as it seemed the same person has done this more than once recently judging by the 2 very similar bags. It might also be just a silly joke, who knows. I won’t be checking the content of the bags anytime soon.
Further on our walk, we stopped to watch the softball games at Riverdale park and all of a sudden DR noticed this couple behind me at the top of the hill. She was somewhat hiding by a tree, topless, while her partner took some pictures… Daring I thought.. then this group of hikers came up the hill “chasing” the couple away… We noticed them on the other side of the park continuing their daytime public pastime:
I only had my phone with me, nothing with a zoom on it, but trust me, she’s topless lying in the grass… I wanted her to take the camera and start taking pictures of him naked, but that didn’t happen.
We continued on after that. Walking is one free thing we can still afford, so we’re doing a lot of it lately… We ended up closer to Alan Gardens and then the rain started pretty heavily. We took cover and waited it out for a bit. When we resumed, we noticed that the doggy park was totally empty, there was our chance to go take pictures with the statues:
After getting home, we finished watching Norma Rae, pretty topical I’d say…
