Snow Day: The Vintage Edition
It was only last month that we had a large amount of snow dumped on us and we’ve recently taken another hit from last week’s snow storm. Living in Toronto has living in snow as a requirement and it is something that we Canadians have engrained in our culture.
A post from Derek Flack shows vintage photographs of the city with a heavy dusting of the snow. The shots below are our favourites:
