    Default Robert and Algonquin meet up

    David and I had a good time tonight, eating Greek food and chatting guitars and renovations!

    David is an amazing guy and I'm grateful he took the time to hook up. Forgot to take photos of course! But we aren't much to look at any away. Strictly speaking about myself only of course.

    Right now, I'm listening to some amazing live jazz. Tunes by Christine Jensen performed by Toronto jazz orchestra at The Rex. Amazing composing! Im having a fabulous time in Toronto! I go back on Wednesday. Planning a brewery tour tomorrow and the David cronenberg exhibition.

    We had 'high' hopes we'd bump into him... but that was just a 'pipe' dream!
