toronto: Day Trip from Toronto, ON - 05/21/13 09:47 AM
Day Trip from Toronto, ON
Last weekend was Victoria Day long-weekend. Took a day-trip to Kelso Conservation Area, from Toronto, ON. On the way, passed through Milton, ON. Looks like Milton had a housing boom in recent years. Saw many constructions sites, so the growth of the town is growing ........ just like the growth of condo construction in the City of Toronto, ON.
The Kelso Conservation Area is a great place for a day-trip from Toronto. You can walk, hike, boat etc.

Trunk or Treat .....Looks like there are no Trunk or Treat in Toronto, ON. I have not heard of Trunk or Treat before, until I saw the Week 2 –October’s Trending Queries.

The children then go trunk-to-trunk to be spooked and receive their candy, like spider cookies;    parents and children get to enjoy this family event.
 
It maybe an alternative to Halloween, and associated with Schools … (0 comments)
