| A blast from 2008 ~the same thing that happened on Monday, the 26th of April. Remember THIS? |
| The Beautification of Crystal Beach? Weeds run amok in business district while committee raises funds and gets photo ops. Well, here are some pics you won't see on the glossy self-serving brochures. |
It took a week to recover from the nastiest flu bug I've encountered in years. The Fire House Grill, a
restaurant I've become involved in, will be open and running by June 1. We had hoped to be open by this
weekend, but the flu and other snags delayed us. The name was chosen to give a shout-out to family members
and those who serve as emergency personnel. The decor will feature a lot of fire department memorabilia and
will include some firehouse tested recipes along with the usual beach fare. Stoney Creek Ice Cream will be
offered as well as products from local providers. We are committed to shop locally as much as possible while
maintaining the highest quality available. We will also feature original, authentic Greek favourites along
with breakfast and some Canadian (real poutine) and American stand-bys. We have put a lot of thought into
our menu and decor. I hope those who enjoyed the food offered when I operated "Sub World" many years ago
will return.

A visitor to Crystal Beach need only look to the right on Ridgeway Road to see a weed-encased
bench at the approach to Erie Road. Nice curb there too. Lovely to see all that wild greenery
decorating the decorative brick. (Of course, on the other side of Erie, where the CBTYC is
located, there are no weeds.)

Last year, there was poison ivy growing near one light pole near the public beach. Winnie and her
crew seldom get father than their "special boulevard" near Winnie's home, yet they are fund-raising
for the "Beautification of Crystal Beach" using the memory of Lorraine Murphy who worked hard to
get those benches and brickwork installed on the main streets of The Beach. Disgraceful.
