In My World

Except for one stop to pick up a letterbox and the occasional Tim Hortons stop, today was spent driving from Quebec City to Gananoque ON.  Translation . . . I dozed and Hal drove. We had planned on supper at our hotel, Ramada by Wyndham Gananoque Provincial Inn (how's that for a confusing long name?), but the restaurant served only Indian and Pakistani cuisine.  There was not even a sandwich or burger on the menu . . . sigh . . .

The Petit-Sault Blockhouse in Edmunston NB has a very interesting history . We finally reached Quebec City and checked into our motel for the night.   Sadly, Quebec City left us with a bad im...
