Charlene and I like hiking, and we like art. At Humanics Sanctuary and Sculpture Park, we could do both. Located within a ravine just a short drive from Ottawa, Ontario, is a place that celebrates the diversity of all of mankind and honours the equality…
Niagara is probably the region we have visited more than anywhere else. There is so much to do, and so much is worth doing a repeat visit. The biggest attraction is Horseshoe Falls and American Falls, and I cannot tell you how many times we…
