Happy birthday to us!
If I remember it right, we were walking home from the Farmers’ Market nine years ago this weekend, when I asked my wife what she thought about me starting a blog about Weston.
I’m pretty sure we were walking under the mulberry tree on Elm (I love mulberry trees) when she asked me what I would call it.
“WestonWeb?” I said.
She thought the name was stupid. I remember that clearly. She’s probably right.
But it stuck, and nine years later, we are still the best blog about Weston. Happy birthday to us!
York Memo salvageable
While parts of York Memorial had to be demolished during the two fires at the school this week, the Globe and Mail reports that the school will stand. Hooray!
But despite the charred interiors, scarred walls and water damage in the basement – which was almost filled with water – early assessments by engineers are promising, a Toronto Fire Services platoon chief told reporters at the scene. It looks like the building can be saved.
