Ruby Red Tuesday ~ The Main Street in Collingwood



Hurontario St in Collingwood is the prettiest main street in small town Ontario. Christie's is an old established clothing shop and all the downtown has been renovated but still preseves the archiecture and style og building of the 18th century.

Mellow Yellow Monday - A Splash of yellow

MellowYellowMondayBadge

I like Mellow Yellow's philosophy...the world looks better with a splash of yellow. Collingwood Ontario is a former ship building town on Georgian Bay in Ontario. It has the prettiest Main Street in Ontario. Lately more and more new shops are opening up as people are moving out of the city to smaller communties. This restaurant, Azzura, was a cheery splash of colour on a bleak, grey December day.

Main Street Ontario ~Ruby Tuesday



This is Hurontario St in downtown Collingwood Ontario. There is still the character and 'flavour' of small town Ontario despite the growth outside the town. I like the red brick and the fact they try to maintain the orginal buildings from the 19th century. Collingwood was a shipbuilding town with it's port on the southern end of Georgian Bay. the last ship launch was 26 years ago - I was there. We went over to see it, at the time I didn't realise I was watching history.

When I was looking at other photo blogs, I saw a photo from blogger and had to try a similar shot. The idea isn't mine, I thank EG WOW for the idea.
