I think that slate roof looks like one in Gananoque Ontario.

fresnelly 01-30-2006 08:02 PM

Is that congregation a regular thing, or is the first picture of a special event?

Lucifer 01-31-2006 06:19 AM

it's a pretty regular thing in the summer time, sunday afternoons around 3, if my memory serves. We can hear the organ music from our island.

Charlatan 01-31-2006 06:21 AM

That would be definately in Gananoque... The Church in the shot is St. John's Catholic Church.

Lucifer 01-31-2006 06:24 AM

Correct...Continue...

Devil's Island

Charlatan 01-31-2006 06:36 AM

Half-Moon Bay, a large crescent-shaped inlet in the St. Lawrence River near Gananoque, Ontario

Lucifer 01-31-2006 06:38 AM

Technically speaking, an inlet can't be in a river! But you are correct on the name, Half-Moon Bay is on Bostwick Island in the Admiralty Group, near Gananoque.

Game On!

That was a tough one...

Leto 01-31-2006 07:03 AM

is that in the Ottawa area?

fresnelly 01-31-2006 07:57 AM

That's the Peacekeepers' Monument in Ottawa, at Sussex Dr. and St. Patrick.

It was unveiled in 1992 and is titled "Reconciliation"

The inscription reads:

"We need action not only to end the fighting but to make the peace… My own government would be glad to recommend Canadian participation in such a United Nations force, a truly international peace and police force." — Lester B. Pearson, Nov. 2, 1956

fresnelly 01-31-2006 08:19 AM

Here's my next one.

Game on Fresnelly...

Bossnass 01-31-2006 08:37 AM

Is that the Wawa goose?

Charlatan 01-31-2006 08:43 AM

I'd say that's game on Bossnass...

fresnelly 01-31-2006 08:58 AM

Bossnass takes it!

Leto 01-31-2006 09:54 AM

Whoo hoo! way to go Bossnass. (it was just a matter of timing!)

Bossnass 01-31-2006 10:07 AM

I'm far too happy with myself for finally seeing something I recognized before someone else named it.

edit - I had to blur out a clear label.
edit 2 - more sign-blocking on a second picture

Leto 01-31-2006 05:56 PM

is that a psychiatric hospital?

Bossnass 01-31-2006 06:22 PM

Nope. Although many post-secondary students probably think they might be a bit crazy.

Leto 02-01-2006 03:20 AM

Brandon University?

Bossnass 02-01-2006 07:31 AM

Nope. In a maritime province. The sign I'm standing beside says founded 1838.

Leto 02-01-2006 07:42 AM

Acadia University. Home of the Axmen... located in Wolfeville Nova Scotia.

http://www.acadiau.ca/

A good colleague/ friend of mine was a linebacker there...

Lucifer 02-01-2006 07:54 AM

my little sister goes there, tiny campus

Bossnass 02-01-2006 07:57 AM

Game on to Leto.

Leto 02-01-2006 08:24 AM

here's a gimme:

Charlatan 02-01-2006 08:56 AM

That is the Canada/US boarder between Seattle and Vancouver.

Peace Arch Park... the Canadian film production company is named after this...

Leto 02-01-2006 10:00 AM

Game on Charlatan (the crossing between White Rock and Blaine)

Charlatan 02-01-2006 10:05 AM

flyman has to get this one:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...1/bfc73417.jpg

Leto 02-01-2006 10:47 AM

that's Molson's in Barrie.

Charlatan 02-01-2006 10:49 AM

Haha... nope.

Leto 02-01-2006 10:52 AM

well, I tried...

Charlatan 02-01-2006 11:08 AM

I was laughing because I'd forgotten about the bust in Barrie.

fresnelly 02-01-2006 01:21 PM

I'm pretty sure that's the Official Government Weed crop, underground in Flin Flon, Manitoba.

Charlatan 02-01-2006 01:28 PM

Game on Fresnelly!


(oddly when I did a Google Search the first link was to the TFP and it was something posted by me.)

fresnelly 02-01-2006 01:30 PM

Cool!

Speaking of Secret Government labratories... What nefarious plans are they cooking up in this mysterious structure, I wonder?

Charlatan 02-01-2006 01:49 PM

That looks like the Toronto Zoo, the African Pavilion, I think.

ya, i could tell you remembered that. I lived behind Formosa Park as a child, (now renamed to park Place via Molson's park) and we would try to sneak into the old Formosa Springs brewery (now the old Molson's Brewery, now the old marijuana grow op). We were never successful, but many adventures were to be had...

naa I don't think so. I don't have the vibe that it's the zoo. It looks too pointy.

I'm going to go withthe Great Prairie Sod House Museum ???

Charlatan 02-01-2006 02:04 PM

I agree... not the Zoo. Not enough concrete for the entrance I'm thinking about and too underground.
