#0298 "Reach for the Sky!"

Simply this is my view of a colourful maple tree in the fall of 1990 at the Kortwright Centre for Conservation. If I am not looking up at the weather then I am looking up at the forest canopy. Both are intriguing. The family was out for a Sunday stroll on the Maple Trail. We would also attend the afternoon presentations in the Kortright Theatre. It always amazed me that the largest city in Canada was just miles away but we could have the Kortright Centre largely to ourselves.

This is intended as the partner to #0297 "Dizzying Heights!". The phrase used in the title means to "set very high goals and aspire to the best" or in the old cowboy movies, when the good guy told the bad guy to put their hands up. I was always trying to learn and get better on my artistic journey.

The Kortright Centre opened in 1982 to become an example of excellence in the field of sustainable technology. Kortright is owned and operated by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA). I used to be quite involved with the TRCA when we lived in Schomberg. We have implemented the best of those energy innovations at Singleton and I hope to do more.
