• Cheetah Cubs

    The cheetah cubs lie around all day too.

    But then so does their mom.

    image_thumb3

    Cubs are kind of annoying.

    image_thumb6

    They mostly just want food.

    image_thumb12

    Having quintuplets is a bad idea.

    image_thumb8

    They are very long already.

    image_thumb7

    And they all have funny hairdos.

    image_thumb9[1]

    They seem to be very flexible and lazy.

    image_thumb10

    It is hard to get more than half of them looking at you at the same time.

  • Solar Eclipse

    Today the moon passed in front of the sun.

    image

    It looked a lot like a slightly orange crescent moon.

    image

    Then it made a frowny face.

    image

    The shadows got slightly more crescent shaped.

    image

    Kerri made slightly crescenty shadow puppets with the camera tucked under her arm because she forgot the tripod.

    image

    Fortunately Toronto has lots of crazy people, so no one cared.

    image

    Matt watched from his fancy break room.

    image

    Then the moon started to leave.

    image

    Goodbye moon.

  • Inflatable 5K Round 2

    We did the inflatable 5K again this year.

    image

    The weather was much nicer than last year.

    image

    The obstacles were big and bouncy.

    image

    And slidey.

    image

    We bounced through them.

    image

    Then we rested.

    image

    Then we actually ran for a little bit.

    image

    And then we bounced our way down

    image

    To the finish line.

  • The Cow

    At the request of an overwhelming 31% of our readers (AKA Matt’s Mom), Kerri decided to visit the Markham Cow.

    image

    The cow is located in Cathedraltown, which is named because it has a Cathedral.

    image

    It also has a snail, but they don’t call it snailtown.

    image

    The residents of Cathedraltown all live in nearly identical houses, each of which is worth at least as much as the $1,200,000 cow.

    image

    Their houses all have tiny well tended gardens.

    image

    The people are unhappy that they have to see the cow when they look out their front windows.

    image

    It is surrounded by Caution tape, which is only a slightly less attractive shade of yellow than the houses.

    image

    If feel sorry for the cow, who’s cold, dead eyes reflect the endless monotony of the Cathedraltown houses.

    image

    In fact every part of the cow’s anatomy reflects the endless monotony of the Cathedraltown houses.

    image

    Every single bit.

    image

    The hooves initially appear to be house-free, but if you look closely in the line between leg and hoof, there they are.

    image

     

    It almost makes you wonder if the guy who donated the two-story tall cow is just a peeping Tom that wanted a better view of someone’s second story window.

    image

    Would you rather have your house reflected in the front of a cow…

    image

    Or the rear?

    image

    At least it will be less reflective once it’s covered in bird poop.

    image

    If you are wondering what the weird handle is in the side, it’s not a handle. It’s just more reflected houses.

    image

    MOOOOOOOO
