April Showers Bring May Flowers

Living in the Toronto area has it's benefits, as compared to say the Mid-West United States, where you may go home from work one day and find your house has been blown away by a tornado!  Although it may be cool right now, at least you can be pretty sure your house will be there when you get home.  The effects of the severe weather in the U.S. will pass our region soon, right in time to welcome May.

So many Community Events in Etobicoke during the month of May.
