This year's Jane's Walk takes place May 7th and 8th and, once again, the West Annex News is providing directions for a self-guided walk.
The lanes and alleys of the Annex are the topic of the tour, an intriguing subject. Sometimes the back alleys in neighbourhoods seem like a parallel universe, one that's more utilitarian and a little darker -- there's no "Sunday best" there, just sheer functionality.
But then they get gussied up with street art, a reminder that some people prefer to hang where they are fewer eyes on them. And it always reminds me of this lyric: And the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls.
Happy walking!
