The Blue Mountain, near Collingwood, Ontario, has some of the decent skiing in Ontario. In the summer, you can have a modestly priced vacation and visit limestone caves in the Niagara Escarpment. The walk to the caves includes a stroll along the edge of the Niagara Escarpment. Here’s a bit of the view from the escarpment, overlooking Georgian Bay, an arm of Lake Huron. Where are the caves? Well, they’re below the lookout points.

This is my favourite version of the old Scottish song, “Sir Patrick Spens,” probably because it’s the first one I heard. The accent is a bit thick, so it takes several listens to puzzle out most of the words. Fortunately, you’ll also find it in books of poetry under “Ballads.” Take it away, Buffy!
This site has some unusually carved Hallowe’en pumpkins:

Word on the Street 2008 – Toronto , originally uploaded by brilliantboy08
Flickr’s brilliantboy08 took this picture of yesterday’s Word on the Street book fair. These days it’s held at Queen’s Park instead of down on Queen Street.
This is not a song I’m familiar with.
Traditional: a man is courted by a witch.
