Grenadier Pond

I went for a walk with a friend yesterday in High Park Here in Toronto and took a few pictures as always. I really would be lost if I went anywhere without my camera. As we were walking along Grenadier Pond I remember the story I heard one winter when I was walking on the frozen pond from a guy who lives along the pond. He told me of the myth that in the early 1800's a few British Grenadiers (soldiers) fell though the ice during drill practice because of all the gear that had with them while trying to cross the frozen pond during the late winter and but a few drowned in the pond. I personally think it's just all a myth but still a fun story to imagine about even if there is not any record of such an event occurring.

Some say that some parts of the pond are bottomless because of the mud that is like quicksand.
My question is this, would the mud not in fact be the actual bottom of the pond even if you can't stand on it?

Ontario - It's Where I live

Welcome to this blog, I decide to try something a little different then other blogs I have done in the last. This blog is going to be about the province I love, Ontario.

I grew up in it, where I live, where I always find time to travel these roads, highways, trails, rivers, lakes and streams.

In this post I figure I’d talk about a waterfall called “Webster falls” in Greensville, it is in the area of the city of Hamilton.

The Webster falls is 22 metres/72 feet high and 30 metres/98 feet wide. The water fall is fairly accessible so most people can at least get a view of it from the top and those a bit more daring can even take a short walk down to the bottom of it and walk under it which I had the pleasure of doing when I took the above picture. Just make sure you bring a swimsuit or clothes you do not mind getting wet if you plan and walking behind it.
