Garfield Monument
The day was Labour Day, and it is one of the hardest days to plan when we are on a trip. Monday’s are particularly bad since many of the places we want to see are closed, and then there’s the consideration that it was a…
The Girl in Blue
Many years ago, on a wintry night, a woman died. The circumstances surrounding her death are a mystery, but the biggest mystery was who she was. It is Christmas Eve back in 1933 in the small town of Willoughby, OH, when people noticed a woman…
On Angels Wings
We have visited numerous cemeteries over the years, as they offer a unique opportunity to appreciate art, and we also view them as a way to remember people we never met. I can imagine that most of the graves we have visited no longer get…
Cemeteries
I never thought I would ever visit a cemetery. It is odd to visit a cemetery where no one you know is buried. I hardly saw these sacred places for the dead as a tourist attraction for the living. I believe the first cemetery tour…

I was really looking forward to taking my wife to see and experience the Historic Triangle. As Canadians, our country’s history is about 200 years old. It is tough to find anything before the mid-1800s. If you go to the USA, there is history all…

Summer Coastal Road Trip
Last summer, we went to Alaska for our summer vacation. This year, we will drive the east coast of Canada and a small bit of the USA. This is a trip that I have always wanted to do. Three weeks of driving, hiking, sightseeing, camping…
Easter at Fort Wayne
We have been busy travelling. We just came back from a week-long visit to Virginia Beach. Ten days before that, we were in Cleveland for a three-day weekend. Then, just days before Cleveland, there was Ottawa. And we are about to travel again. Fort Wayne,…
