Met the Landlord and Saw a Drone Show

We finally met our landlord in person. When we checked out the place for the first time, the guy that gave us the tour was the tenant moving out. We received our lease over email and made our legal arrangements remotely. We moved in without seeing our landlord or hearing his voice, although we did wind up talking to him on the phone a couple months in, because our laundry room flooded.

He's been pretty quick to accommodate, but arrangements had only ever been made over email or occasionally by phone. I'm not really complaining, he's been far less intrusive and much quicker to help than my previous landlord. I just haven't been in a living situation where I'd never seen the person I'm renting from face-to-face before.

But recently we've been having an issue with our shower. Probable mold due to worn down caulking, bloating the baseboards outside the bathroom and staining the trim at the base of the wall. Apparently our maintenance guy decided to make a career shift and there isn't an obvious person to replace him, so our landlord decided to come take a look at it himself.

He lives in Toronto. He brought his wife and one of his kids. We learned that he's only owned the place for about four years, so the guy that lived here before us was the first tenant and only stayed about a year. Our upstairs neighbour wound up running into us that day, and it appears that they had met our landlord before, so it's only us that had never met him.

They fixed a closet door that had come off it's frame, and they trimmed the branches off of a couple trees that were getting close to the house. 

The same day that we met our landlord, our local hospital was hosting something called Rally for Health. Bunch of food trucks, The Strumbellas were doing a concert, and there was a drone show.

I'd never been to a drone show before. It was pretty surreal

Each point of light is an individual drone hovering in the night sky. Apparently they were being operated from the football field of a nearby highschool

Still images don't quite do it justice. They were all in motion. This syringe was pumping itself.

This is for mental health. We were standing in front of a guy who was very enthusiastic. He seemed to be involved in setting it all up. So we overheard him mention what this symbol meant

The guy behind us shouted "WORLD'S LARGEST KIDNEYS! IT'S TRUE!" when this one came up. Don't know what that references. Maybe the world's largest kidneys came through Grand River Hospital? Maybe he's just talking about this drone show display?

This says "Care Never Stops" It's their motto. From this vantage point you can only see "Care Never Ops"
