As usual, I don't want to admit we're in the dog days of summer. In the Toronto area, this summer has been full of insane amounts of rain, lightning bolts, thunder and even hail, which makes our inevitable march towards fall (and, gasp, winter!) all the more painful. By August 9th we'd broken the previous summer rainfall record set back in 1986. Yup, we've had the wettest summer since they started keeping track.
But today, the second day of the Canadian National Exhibition, the weather cooperated and delivered a perfectly sunny twenty-six degree day so I offer mother nature a bow along with a cheerful smile of thanks. As you can see, my fellows riders on the Crazy Mouse were also offering grins of thanks (I suspect they may be involved in the witness protection program but it would've been impolite to ask).
If you plan on hitting The Ex tomorrow don't forget to check out the TTC subway musician auditions being held beside the Food Building (west side). The talent level varies but some of them will blow you away.
