Where are you from????????

[brewmaster15]

Well,
By now many of you know I hail from the tiny state of  Connecticut, on the eastern  seaboard of the  USA...

I think I'll buy a map of the USA and canada and start marking off where everyone  is. Theres probably even software out there to let us make an interactive one  for the site( Paper copy first).


Pierre,
  How close are you to Kejimkujik national park,  or cape bretons highlands national park?  Both of these  are my birding hitlist , places I want to go  bird watching/photography  at. I've been to the Gaspe pennisula of Quebec  twice for that reason. Thats also where  I got engaged.  

From my last trip to your beautiful part of the world...

Al,
Those pictures bring back memories. My father and I took a motorcycle trip in the summer of 96. We left Ohio, went through New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, into New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, hopped on a ferry and went over to New Foundland and travelled all the way up the Viking Trail and back. Came back through Montreal, Ottawa, Quebec, and through the Algonquin to our cottage on Tobin's island on lake Rosseau in Ontario. To make a short story longer, those pictures are very reminiscent of all that area as you probably know. We actually had intended to go around the Gaspe but after a couple weeks of travelling with several days of rain we were done. Beautiful country.

hey someone who summers on lake rosseau! gee, i've been wondering, does goldie hawn still look good in a bathing suit... i spent my summers growing up in the kawarthas, on buckhorn lake.

i've seen every canadian province, and nova scotia and gaspe are beautiful, but if you haven't seen british columbia, you have missed the best part. i wish i was taking pics, but there are some of the most amazing places, on the coast, and in the interior.

Eagles and of course I have to mention the wildlife that live down the road ie neighbours etc.. LOL Open door here all the time.

Sharon, MA. 35 minutes from Boston and Providence (north and south, respectively). Only one street light downtown, but a ridiculous number of dry cleaners there. Most people are commuters. Me too. It sucks taking up precious water/change time.
Cheers, Francisco.

Rick,
What a small world, my family bought a place up there in 1945 and we have been going up there ever since. It is funny that you mention Goldie, we are a two minute boat ride from her place I should say were, she and Kurt moved out two summers ago. They put an add in the Muskoka Sun asking people to leave them alone but it never happened so I guess they took off. I intend to get up to BC soon.
