Here are some photos that I took on Tuesday of this week at Humber Trails, off the Mill Road, south of the King Road, just east of Nobleton.

King pole pennants renewed...

Photos by Barry Wallace





A sure sign of spring is the installation 
of new pole pennants along the main streets 
of King Township's villages.   They feature the 
works of local artists whose names appear 
on the bottom of the pennants.   
Nicely done.

Simonis Landscaping is flying a new flag

Canadian Sesquicentennial flag flying in King
I was driving north on Hwy. 400 last weekend and noticed these flags flying on the east side of the highway, a little north of King's 17th Sideroad.   The striking blue flag with the multi-coloured maple leaf is the official flag of Canada's 150th birdthday.   It was designed by Ariana Cuvin of Toronto and chosen as the winner in a nationwide contest.   This is the first one I have seen in the township so far, but I'm sure there will be more.
