Apparently, one does not have to travel to Tibet and climb over the Kunlun Mountain range in order to enter Shangri-La.
The gate exists right here in downtown Toronto, on Simcoe Street.

Terra Cotta Conservation Area
Yesterday, my friend, Kinga and I took a day trip to Terra Cotta Conservation Area (aka The Hills of Headwaters) in the Caledon Hills area, just north of the City.
We both have a book called "Nature Hikes" by Janet Eagleson that describes about 30 or more trails near Toronto. The section about the Terra Cotta area says that there are 37 varieties of wild orchids to see in this Conservation Park.
So...equipped with cameras and food we ventured out in search of some wild orchids.
What we found instead was two ponds full of frogs.
Green frogs...
Yellow frogs...
Bullfrogs.....
I found this tree fungus to be an interesting shot....
And so it was, no orchids, two jack in the pulpits, and the people who care for this area say there are no orchids here.
