 Sometime early during my first term at Victoria College I got up my courage to ask a girl out for a picnic
She lived in Annesley Hall and we had met at one of the evening "hops" where one danced to music from the record player, under the eagle eye of a don.
She seemed a little surprised but I assured her that this was just fine as there was very little traffic around the park on Sundays.
As we prattled on, tucked into the supper and sampled the wine I had brought, Toronto took on a rosier late-afternoon glow; it really seemed a pretty civilized place to me after all, and Queens Park became an acceptable picnic venue to her.
