"Call Me Irresponsible"

Tonight I got home just after 10:00pm, I was wanting some fresh air so put on my Ipod and went out for a walk by the water. The music of choice for my 'romantic' moonlit walk was the new Michael Buble CD 'Call Me Irresponsible'.

As I walked up Brant street from the water, the downtown core was illuminated by trees draped in lights, and the glow from each shop. It's such a lovely area. I often sit on the patio at the Starbucks and people watch, I am so glad to live in such a beautiful area.The weekends that I have my kids, we always walk/roller blade along the water front at Spencer Smith park. My kids even comment on how lucky we are to live near such a beautiful spot. The neighbour hood I live in offers such a great balance for me. The weekends I don't have the kids, it's great for a young professional, the down town coffee shops, shopping, and lakefront patio's. There is also a great variety of restaurants and bars located in the downtown area.

Balance that with the Park, splash pad, beach front, running/rollerblading path's and it's a great place for my kids on the weekends they are with me. I can't say enough about it. We also have an amazing Art Centre right on the water, with a variety of Guilds that operate out of the Centre. I feel at home in this neighbourhood. It feels good!
