I was on my way to the Grotto with my dogs when the trail opened up to this. I'm afraid of heights, but I'm also drawn to them — there's something about looking down from a high place that I can't resist. What stopped me here was the water. I wasn't expecting that colour. Mediterranean turquoise, right here in Ontario — shifting to deep cobalt at the horizon, with the flat escarpment island holding its place in the distance. Below, people had found their way down to the cove — small figures on ancient limestone, doing what humans have always done. Claiming a beautiful place, if only for an afternoon.
The limestone beneath my feet has been there 450 million years. The hikers below would be gone by evening. And humanity itself — for all its claiming and marking and building — is the briefest of tenants on a very old rock.
