Some time in the 1990s - Telephone Road runs parallel to the 401 and Lake Ontario's shoreline. The only thing of any note near it is The Big Apple roadside attraction. Just a beautiful road - I turned onto it from the 401 because of the song 'Telegraph Road' by Dire Straits. I just read that the song is about the road in Detroit where Krystal spent part of the end of her life in a dirtball motel in the early 2020s as a heroin addict. There's a woman walking down it in the distance. Krystal would have been in high school probably when the picture was taken.
