So this past Sunday, The Geeky Cat and I set out on what we thought would be an exhilarating hike through the Mimico Creek area with the Toronto Field Naturalists. It started out well enough but we soon realized that the group was more interested in fossil hunting than strolling - which is fine because that’s what they do. But we were interested in the further exploration of the hidden treasures in our city so while the crowd began to move on to the next fossil site, we quietly sauntered away toward our own path. 
We spent the afternoon ambling through a variety of neighborhoods each offering their own unique and appealing charms and even came across some urban wildlife (see photo).
Our expedition culminated with a sojourn (as should all good adventures) at a the Coffee Tree Roastery which boasts a very isolated back patio. Appetites sated, we basked in the late afternoon sun, contemplating nothing but the many journeys ahead…

Why can't every day be Sunday with nothing to do but plan an escape from old weathered fossils; stumble upon hidden treasures; make friends with chipmunks, woodpeckers, and other Pumpkin-like critters of the forest; and get giddishly intoxicated with too much coffee, sunshine, and love.
