We're back at Boiler Beach near Kincardine, and in this episode we'll visit the remains of the famous boiler from which the beach takes its name. The boiler's remains are all that is left from the ship "The Erie Belle" which exploded and sank on these shores in November 1883. Worn and rusted now, the boiler seems to get smaller every year due to the constant erosion of the waves. We'll take a close-up look at the remains of the boiler, and we'll see some of the beautiful stretches of sandy beach that is on either side of it. Enjoy!

Here we are in the middle of the long dark days of winter, so maybe it would be a good idea to look at a series that was filmed in Kincardine Ontario last summer. Let's head to the beach on the shores of Lake Huron in this first of a quick series of episodes. Kincardine is a town of 12,000 residents that is located about halfway up the eastern shore of Lake Huron, around a 3 hour drive from The GTA. We'll start by visiting Boiler Beach during a warm summer afternoon. Boats and clouds will roll by all to the sound of the rolling waves. This is a beautiful, tranquil spot, and we'll see more of it in coming episodes of TLTV.

Today we are going to take a trip into one of the grandest spaces in Canada ... Union Station in downtown Toronto. Union Station opened to the public in 1927 and has been Toronto's rail station ever since. It is still the largest and most opulent railway station in Canada. Serving 200,000 passengers per day, it is also the busiest passenger transportation facility in the country. Especially impressive is the cavernous Great Hall which rivals New York's Grand Central Station. Let's go inside...

In this second half of a two-part look at the old section of the Mount Pleasant Cemetery, we'll get a look at more of the interesting monuments and sculptures lining the grounds. We'll see a cup of coffee and can of pop left for someone's late parent, get a glimpse of some flowers that were left at some graves, and visit the resting place of a very famous Canadian. William Lyon Mackenzie King was one of Canada's longest serving Prime Ministers, including during World War II. He passed away in 1950, but his grave is still adorned with flowers, including a single pink rose on top. We'll finish off with a look at the tunnel we will take to explore the new section of the cemetery in a future edition of TLTV.

This is the first of a two-part look at the old section of the Mount Pleasant Cemetery, the most famous and one of the oldest cemeteries in The GTA. In November 1876, Mount Pleasant Cemetery opened. It was located on the distant outskirts of Toronto and had more than twelve miles (19km) of carriage drives along rolling hills and blue lakes filled with ducks and swans. With the growth of the GTA since then, the cemetery is now located in the centre of the city of Toronto. The cemetery still has many miles of walking paths, interspersed with fountains, statues, botanical gardens, and rare and distinct trees. It is the final resting place of more than 168,000 persons, including heroic veterans, medical pioneers, musicians, powerful business people, politicians, clergymen, sports luminaries, and more. Among those whose graves can be found here are: Frederick Banting & Charles Best (co-discoverers of Insulin), Glenn Gould (pianist & composer), Timothy Eaton and Robert Simpson (department store magnates), Ted Rogers (founder of Rogers Communications), William Lyon Mackenzie King (one of Canada's greatest Prime Ministers, leading the nation through World War II), 5 Premiers of Ontario, 5 Lieutenant Governors of Ontario, 6 Mayors of Toronto, and many more. The old section of the cemetery is filled with rolling hills, winding roads, small surprising treasures, and large imposing monuments to greatness ... let's have a look around during an early winter afternoon.

In this final episode of Autumn in High Park, we'll get our last look at the fall colours while watching people stroll along the park's paths. We'll pass by the pier again as ducks swim by, and we'll finish up by the shores of Grenadier Pond as the afternoon sun begins to set.

In episode 4 from High Park we'll return to the small waterfall and bridge, seeing some of the falling autumn leaves head over the falls. Next we'll pass by a few of the many pieces of artwork in the park, stopping beneath a stand of trees that are bright yellow and orange. The colours are amazing. We'll pass by some tennis being played and watch as people have fun with the fallen leaves. We'll also find a quite place to read near the hockey rinks. Enjoy!
