Leacock Chairs

Street Art in Orillia to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town (Mariposa)

These chairs are made of sheet metal and although not cushiony soft, are quite comfortable!

P is for piggy

at a restaurant in Kingston called Chez Piggy (once owned by Zal Yanovsky of the band the Lovin Spoonful) the hallway outside the washrooms have been decorated with cartoons of pigs by some well-known editorial cartoonists.

also near Kingston, there is a new coffehouse the Socialist Pig with an attached restaurant called Pig Iron BBQ serving the best pulled pork I have ever had!

ten of sixty sails

Sixty Sails is an outdoor art exhibit in Orillia with sculptures of eight-foot sail panels, made of lexan and supported on a hull of scrolled iron and a concrete pedestal.  I managed to see most of them on their last weekend at Thanksgiving.
