Hurricane Hazel

My super duper friend Leigh lent me an awesome book a few weeks ago called The Carnivore by Mark Sinnett. She thought I would like it. She knows me. Really well. It is an amazing book thus far – set in Toronto during the time period before and after (and well after) Hurricane Hazel [1954 folks] hit unsuspecting residents of Toronto. Hurricane Hazel affected my own relations – they had cottage property around Etobicoke Creek – now called Marie Curtis Park and apparently 360 families (43 homes destroyed) were left homeless in the area after Hazel hit. The power of mother nature is phenomenal. This is a post inspired by Hurricane Hazel.

This next picture is one I took in September as the weather changed rapidly (I feel like this is what happens when it turns into a crazy storm)
