Short Jaunt: Broadview & Gerrard… and Riverdale Park

If I were to offer you lumberjack money, cured meats, and a sprawling farm with private river access, what would you say? What if it came with a jail and a murderous tree? Well, I’d still be in. Join me on this short jaunt, and all these things can be yours too (even if only for 12ish minutes).
