So Christmas Eve day and I was building a snowman with my little one on my postage stamp size of a front yard in Erin Mills and had the Mini3pro up recording. I wanted to run down the battery so not far as the crow flies is 1959 Folkway drive, pictured below (lower centre) with the long driveway. This property belonged to the late singer Ronnie Hawkins from 1967 to 1975 and Hawkins hosted John Lennon and Yoko Ono for an extended stay in late 1969. Legend has it that Lennon worked on the song Imagine while staying on the property. And to think some people call Mississauga boring!
