Old; The Shoe Tree Central St (Conc. 9) just east of Brock Rd. Claremont.
If you have not been to Claremont it is a beautiful bedroom community surrounded by farm lands that are about to become the Pickering Airport. The number of old houses that I have driven by on my way to work only to return to a driveway and a hole in the ground. Some entire hamlets are gone. I find it odd that at a time when airlines are dying off as business travel becomes a thing of the past and a food shortage seems imminent that prime farm lands are being paved over for runways.

Business travel is not a thing of the past...pfftt...
don't worry your food will be grown from a test tube soon enough...no need for farm land

I can see a soon to be pilot taking this stance and you may have a very valid point but I have soft spot for old houses/building etc. that represent our past and this breaks my heart.
Try selling your new house in Stouffville when you and all your fly boy buddies start buzzing over our roof tops.
I hope your not putting a 2 Brothers on your Cessna! haha.

David Gohn Circle, Markham, ON
(off 16th Ave, west of Markham Road)
Named to honour David Gohn, early settler on Leslie Street, south of current
Hwy 407. The David Gohn House was the first to be relocated to Markham Heritage
Estates subdivision.
... at one point many years ago, the Misses and I considered purchasing the home two doors west of here.... But the thought of spending years restoring every brick and floorboard did not appeal to us.
"Still in the game", baby! (p.s. I failed miserably on my attempted roadside mobile upload ... still need to figure this thing out. Eventually the thought came to mind "Hey, I'm suited up. Standing next to my bike. And I'm out here tappin' away on a micro-keyboard?!?!? :-| Saddle up!)

We must have been just missed each other. I was there at 6:05AM. Got my Galaxy S yesterday evening, playing fields are beginning to even out.

Sure am glad I decided not to detour by there as I left just before 6:30. Would have been disappoint
Searched for that damn tree for an hour yesterday. Knew I had seen it somewhere around there but was getting frightfully low on fuel and needed to get home. I was off by a couple of sideroads … Ho hum
