…happy Victoria Day weekend from Harold
Harold doesn’t look particularly happy. He’s Moody Blues brother so it might be a genetic thing or he might be out of sorts from a lack of sleep due to all the fireworks last night.

….Montgomery’s Inn
At the intersection of Dundas and Islington in the west end of Toronto sits the heritage site of Montgomery’s Inn. The inn was built in 1830 by Thomas and Margaret Montgomery, both immigrants from Ireland. It served as a meeting place for the community and a place for travellers to rest and enjoy a drink and a meal. The original property covered 400 acres of land and was used primarily for farming.
Today the building has been restored and serves as a historical museum and hosts various groups and exhibitions. Momentarily the building is undergoing more restoration but remains open to the public. For more information about the history go here.
Thanks to Norm for hosting Thursday Doors
