P365 - 2014 - Day 86 - Oh Canada! (Guest Blogger - My Wonderful Husband)
I always joke with my kids and my wife that I am from Canada. I don't know why--ever since I was a little kid I have had a weird affinity for Canadians. I cheer for their hockey teams, I like the sight of the Maple Leaf, and I like the accent. I suppose some of it was my love for winter. I skied, played hockey and just generally enjoyed the cold. That has certainly changed, but I still do like Canada--despite the cold. Last night I arrived in Toronto for the International Studies Association conference--first time here, so I was excited to see the city. Unfortunately, I was also sick and getting sicker so my time spent out and about in Toronto was limited. But in my walk back to the hotel today I passed the old City Hall building. I thought it was a classic building and the perfect pic of the day. So wave the Maple Leaf, drink a Keith's beer and sing Oh Canada in tribute to our northern neighbors.
