More Christmas Fun

I forgot to mention in my last post that the home at 37 Bertmount (near Queen East and Jones) is also a great Christmas house. I've been meaning to profile them one of these days because they have a year-round explosion of toys attached to the front of the house and displayed in the front yard (the back is apparently equally spectacular!) The 365-day display include Mickey Mouse, Spongebob, teddy bears, tigers and a host of other stuffed and plastic toys too numerous to mention now. For Christmas, the usual contingent is reinforced with a small regiment of Santas, angels, snowmen and so on. And there are lights, too.

And only one day to go until I get to enter the mysterious archival depot where the City of Toronto keeps all its heritage artifacts. I'm way excited about that, as you may imagine!!!

By the way, this Christmas vision comes courtesy of Winners at College and Yonge!
