I’ll be participating in the Second Annual Danforth Multifaith Peace Walk and urge everyone to join me.  The walk begins at Glen Rhodes United Church and continues past the Danforth Jewish Circle, the Pakistani Community Centre and the Madina Masjid on Danforth to celebrate the newly renovated space, ending at Eastminster United Church.

Women are asked to wear a head scarf inside the Madina Masjid.

Around dusk yesterday, while out meeting people with a friend, we spotted two foxes.  They were beautiful.  One was probably a momma — she was more wary and I didn’t see much of her.  The juvenile was stalking some neighbourhood cats, flicking her ears, looking all adolescent and geeky on legs that looked too long for her.  Seeing her there, next to rumbling trains, cars, houses, streetlights and onlookers like me, I was filled with hope for the future.

Please watch your cats.
