Our home is located in the small and quiet city of Guelph, about 1 hour from Toronto. Our home backs onto Preservation Park forest, part of the Hanlon Creek Conservation Area. There are many kilometres of trails through the forest connecting to trails throughout the city. Deer are a common sight, as well as many other birds and animals.
