Blog Guelph: Trails
You want trails we’ve got trails. Guelph, perhaps the trail capital of Ontario got lucky somewhere along it's historic past. Both of our rivers are lined with walking and cycling trails.... often on both sides. Old internal city rail lines have been ripped up and trailified...trailed...er...you get my drift.
In short we could be the flagship for Trails R Us.
This trail runs along the slow Speed River. Photo by vaneramos posted on Flickr. Click the pic for more.

Blog Guelph: Contemporary Dance Festival
Moving right along into Guelph festival season, we have the Guelph Contemporary Dance Festival starting up June 1.
I'm thinking this might be number 8 for the foot loose fest, now moved to the more civilied weather month of June instead of it's previous date in April. Dance events take place around the city including weekend performances in the downtown gem of a green space, Exhibition Park.

The Potters Market II
By appearance, the second annual Potters Market was a wild success with clay baking weather, stunning displays plus plenty of folks with wallets and an appetite to buy.
I did not purchase anything this year, but do own a show-stopping piece from this artist, purchased at last year's first annual. Guelph based Melissa Farquhar, owner of Quintessential Clay has an eye for colour choice and a design sensibility that can only be described as 'fine'.
Despite the family crowd, potty talk flowed between clay smiths and crowd making for a fun and funny time.

Blog Guelph: Train Station
Guelph’s Train Station, located right downtown, is a beauty of a building. On the backside where this future passenger waits, it would be very easy to imagine yourself anywhere in the world.
One of my around-the-world adventures started here. With a fully loaded pack strap firmly to my back, I left my Neeve Street apartment and trudged to the train station. When the older gentleman beside me inquired about my destination, I said "New Zealand." Shocked and puzzled he replied, "I didn't know this train went that far."

Blog Guelph: The Potters' Market
Potter-heads unite!
The second annual Potters' Market is this weekend, May 27 and 28; 10am to 5pm, rain or shine at Goldie Mill, 75 Cardigan Street, Guelph.
And what a stunning event it will be if last years fest was the template to be followed.
The 'blindfolded' potter competition was thrilling. Who could 'throw' the most mugs race won the hearts of all who attended. The sheer number of displays will make your visa card take on a life of its own.
It is certainly worth the drive.

Blog Guelph: Donkey Sanctuary
Guelph is home to the Donkey Sanctuary. Personally I have not visited the retirement home for these beasts of burden but just about everyone I know has.
Upon first learning about the joint I guffawed....finding the idea at least odd if not very strange. But as I age, my understanding of 'sanctuary' for the 'worn out and old' is taking on a new meaning.

As the graphic designer for Hillside Festival, a series of NASCAR books and the Breast of Canada calendar, you'd think that Mr. Lind's creative genius would be fully satisfied.
You'd be wrong.
Gareth is also the master mind behind Weltschmerz, a weekly political bent comic strip that appears in Echo, Eye and his blog, (which is conveniently located on the right sidebar under 'Smart and Funny.)

Blog Guelph: Sleeman Brewery
In honour of May Two Four, I bring you the clear choice, Guelph Sleeman Ale.....maybe Lager. The clear bottles with no label made the brew stand out when it hit the market place in the late 80's.
Sleeman is brewed in our town although recent media reports suggest that the brewery is struggling. Booze making is a tricky business.
This is the final day of our first summer long weekend. Ironically, frost is expected tonight. No doubt, the cold weather meant less beer was sucked back thus contributing to Sleeman's financial situation.

The Apollo Restaurant has operated in the same spot for the 25 year's since I've been in town. For reasons that defy logic, the upper part of the building has been boarded up for as long.
To the left of the diner sits Dino's Athletics. Dino wears a beanie with a propeller on top, runs the store with his dog Lurch and operates a summer camp called Sneakers n' Sandwiches. He’s a loyal supporter of all things athletic.
Yes, 'character' would be an appropriate tag.

The Albion Hotel is commonly known as the 'centre of the universe'. Well past 100 years young, this fine drinking establishment offers one of the earliest-to-open out door patios plus a second floor dance/live music venue that rocks socks.
In earlier times, noteworthy acts like Blue Rodeo and Ani Difranco filled the joint. Local bands routinely cut their teeth. Excellent DJ's spin funky tunes and many a fine birthday celebrations are had.
Directly across the street from the Church of Our Lady, the Alb is a destination unto its self.
Praise be.

Hundreds of people drag thousands of pounds of crap from the river which is then hauled to the dump.
In 1999, some clever welder type created this monster from part of the haul. Despite concerns over public liability and other such worries, Garbagesaurus now lives on the bank of the river in Royal City Park.
