I finally got this poster into a frame.

Hamilton Antique Mall comes through again.

I picked this poster up at Jennifer’s first Bruce concert in Toronto.

Bruce walked on stage, apologized for being late and shouted “This is a fighting prayer for my country!” before ripping into Long Walk Home.

We’re heartbroken 💔

Our friend, Bonnie, has decided to step down as leader of the Ontario Liberal Party once a new leader is elected by the members.

She did this in spite of majority support at our Annual General Meeting this past weekend.

We respect her decision.

A great turnout for Pride At The Stadium Drag Brunch.

A nice 15 walk from our front door.

Wonderful entertainment, with experienced performers who can work a crowd in a FAMILY SETTING.

I feel fortunate to be able to support Hamilton Pride right at home in Hamilton Centre.

Dinner at Barangas On The Beach. It’s a Greek restaurant and an institution in Hamilton. Lively music on the beach, great fare and service as usual. Always busy. A party place on weekends. We parked closer to Hutch’s and walked the trail. If you haven’t been here, you’ve got to visit ❤️❤️

When you NEED Sicilian cannolis 🤤 and rum balls and carrot cake and cream puffs and Napoleons and cheesecake etc. there’s only the legendary heavyweight champion of the baking world, the one and only Sam at Sam’s Queenston Bakery.

Jennifer and I celebrating our 3rd Anniversary ❤️❤️❤️ at MacTini Bar on Ottawa St. We met Joe, Owner and Chef, and had his amazing lamb. OMG 😛 We tried a few martinis (for medicinal purposes of course)

It’s hard to follow Merk but MacTini Bar is a solid contender Great jazzy vibe & off the hook lamb
