Signs of Growth

The southwestern edge of East Gwillimbury is growing, growing, GROWING! This area borders on Newmarket, a burgeoning town overflowing into EG. Until a few years ago, East Gwillimbury was almost totally rural, but this little corner looks like CITY (yes, a four-letter word) to my country-loving eyes.

This shovel is sitting in the unfinished parking lot of a chain hardware store. Chain store? It wasn't THAT long ago that old timers would have laughed at such a ridiculous idea. The times they are a changing!

  1. Sometimes I just wish I could go back and live in the good ole 50s and 60s.
