We used to visit Toronto often years ago. One of our favorite places was visiting Toronto Island because it was quiet peaceful and beautiful. There are no vehicles there because you can only get there by ferry. It’s amazing because you can be in a busy city center with all the chaos, craziness, activity and entertainment … and a ten minute boat ride brings you to a quiet park that feels like sitting in a tranquil eye of a giant storm.

One of the things that caught my eye years ago was a sign in the grass that was prominent as you walked away from the ferry landing.

It said … PLEASE WALK ON THE GRASS

And we walked on the grass often.
