“Thank you for the copies of the September Villager magazines. My fav are the articles that bring back memories. In the Hyde Park / Oakridge issue you have a picture of the London Hunt Club on the bridge. I hunted for 15 yrs …. 14 years on the same horse, never missing a Thanksgiving or Labour Day hunt. The photo is of a Thanksgiving hunt starting at the Hunt Club. I would have been there! That horse is buried in my backyard. Also the Hyde Park bridge, in the 60s I would lie in bed on Kings Park Circle that backs up on the Hunt Club and hear every car that crossed that bridge before the renovation. All the loose boards would rattle. LOL. Great memories.Thanks. Steve.” (Steve Plunkett)

Darlena’s Re-Store gave this Gibbard three-drawer dresser with mirror a much- needed update. Visit them on Facebook to see more samples of their work.
