Thai restaurant in Richmond Hill...

Photo By Pat Cromie
 
I didn't know how good Thai food was until I recently dined at Thai Basil with my good friend Pat Cromie, in Thai Basil's south-east Richmond HIll location, at 1070 Major MacKenzie Drive East.   Excellent authentic food and warm artistic surroundings await.   Pat and I have been twice now, and will go back soon.   Only 20 minutes south of Aurora, via Bayview.

My west coast bird-watching friend Dave Kemp has passed along this scary photo from Vancouver Island, in B.C.,  just nights before Hallowe'en.

Touring east of King and Aurora...

Train from Uxbridge to Stouffville
I had a chance this week to visit a local tourist attraction in Uxbridge: the York Durham Heritage Railway, which operates between Uxbridge and Stouffville and back again, and includes an on-board dinner.   Everything that could go wrong, did.   It became hilarious to the group I was riding with.   I had intended to take several pictures, to include in this blog.   However, I will let the one photo above illustrate our misadventure.   My only concilliatory  remark is that the dessert, served by a group of pleasant young servers, was very tasty.  You have been warned.
