Suburbia
If Jason could live anywhere, he'd live near water.
If I could live anywhere, I'd live near woods.
So somehow we ended up in the suburbs...but I keep finding more & more amazing spaces right here in Markham!
Henry & I went to meet a friend of his and his Mom at a playground right in the middle of a brand new subdivision...right near us. These new subdivisions surround our neighbourhood and it makes me appreciate the few trees I do have on my lawn. The playground is a pretty neat one, all the apparatus spins and is designed completely differently from the older playgrounds. It's built with that rubber stuff on the ground rather than rocks or sand. Anyway, the boys were having fun there when we noticed some paths leading into a treed area nearby.
I was so happy to find a beautiful walking trail through woods with ponds and swans. We had a picnic on a big rock and couldn't see houses at all! What a nice surprise!

That looks just fantastic!
That's so great when you find little secret stashes of nature like that. I wish I'd known that nice long trail in the ravine had existed when I lived there!

Woods & water? Sounds like a recipe for a nice cottage to me! And I promise if you buy one to pay you a nice rental fee from time to time.
