Charlatan, that is Mackenzie House on Bond Street, right next to the St Mike's hospital.

Game on Leto.
In know some of you are thinking, "Bob and Doug MacKenzie have their own Heritage House?" I am sure somewhere in Brampton they do. But this one is not theirs. MacKenzie House Situated in downtown Toronto, Mackenzie House is a Greek Revival row-house, which was purchased by the community for Mackenzie who was the first Mayor of Toronto, an outspoken newspaper editor and leader of the 1837 Upper Canada Rebellion. Explore the museum, the recreated printshop and gallery featuring changing exhibitions. Enjoy several celebrations of Toronto's Scottish heritage including Hogmanay, scotch tasting, and Robbie Burns Day or visit the museums on the Doors Open Toronto weekend. Some clues I was going to give: http://www.bartowel.com/pics/rebellion.gifhttp://www.toronto.ca/culture/images...zie_photos.jpg |
If I have my MacKenzies right, he's buried in the Riverdale cemetary, which Charlatan posted a pic of a page or two ago.
|
I think you are right.
|
Wonderful Charlatan, who's the girl in the pic? Anybody close to you?
How about that Upper Canada Rebellion beer? I used to buy it, but didn't think that it was still available... here is my next pic: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...0/0b052e54.jpg |
Moss Park Armoury at the corner of Queen East and Jarvis.
I was going to post pics of this... I drive by it on the way to work everyday. By the way, Upper Canada Rebellion was a very good beer. They discontinued it. The Fools!!! |

This is actually an artist's rendition, but it's based on actual images:

What a thing to display right before SOME OF US HAVE TO GO TO WORK ON THESE THINGS!!!!! JESUS, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING!!!!!!!
the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. I've actually been over this a few times, and I've been on Superior in the Gales of November! |
Yeah, I was wondering if I was crossing some sort of superstition or other. You got it!
|
Hahahaha... too funny Lucifer.
OK maybe not... |
I'm really superstituous about the wreck. I can't stand to hear the song.
Carrying on with Fresnelly's theme of Places I Hope I Don't Go This Summer, here is one of my favourites: http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ssthismofo.jpg |
Is that island sinking or my eyes screwing with me??
|
The island is not sinking, that's the way it is. Which is a pretty honkin big clue too. And it's a cast iron bitch to get in around the shoals to that stone dock when your ship is 750' long.

Wow thats a big ass boat..... :crazy: Oh and I have no idea where that is! |
Fawn Island - St. Clair River????
|
I didn't expect it to be you, but GAME ON! Time to put your photo linking skills to the test...
|
Welcome to the game TivaBella!
|
Thanks, Charlatan.
Lucifer, I am going to assume that you didn't mean that the way it sounded :lol: After all, I can google with the best of them. Besides, you dropped a huge hint. Here's mine.... http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h2...n/untitled.jpg |
The War of 1812 memorial at Fort Niagara?
|
Hi TivaBella! good to see some new blood in the thread! What was the huge hint that Lucifer dropped? I'm clueless.... don't know your pic either... somewhere around Niagara?
|
No offense intended! Leto, all the islands in the St. Clair river look like that, with canals on the inside and long shoals on the outside. Besides, TivaBella knows what I do for a living and the area I work in, so I guess it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise.
|
Sorry Feelgood - try again.
Hi Leto, it's good to be here. No offence taken Lucifer. |
Queenton's Height? Or Queenton village
Whichever it is called now... |
Nope*******
|
Would this be somewhere in Newfoundland?
|
too flat, too green, and that building looks like it's made from stone, so that rules out Newfoundland!

I think that some hints would be welcome....

O.K. Feelgood's warm, but not quite hot (go west young man). As for the fort itself, here is a bit of history.
The first fort on this site was constructed in 1796 and had a different name than it does today. This post was significant to the British forces during the War of 1812. The current Fort was erected after the war and rebuilt in 1838-40 and served as a centre for the British defence during the Upper Canada Rebellion of 1837-39. Not sure if this is helpful, but the town where it is located shares its name with the original fort. Good luck! |
