Original Toronto Star caption: Taking a traditional sleigh ride to celebrate the holiday season; a group of visitors sit aboard a horse-drawn sleigh yesterday for a tour of Black Creek Pioneer Village and adjoining conservation area. The area was also popular with skiiers and tobogganers; and the Village's Halfway House dining room was booked solid. The snow will stay for awhile; with a chilly high of 25 forecast for tomorrow.
