That would be my guess too..

Sticky 09-29-2006 05:19 AM

Victoria Bridge it is.

The bridge has one lane of one way traffice on either side with a rail line in the middle.

Sticky 09-29-2006 08:17 AM

Watson's Mill Manitock Ontario?

Leto 09-29-2006 11:13 AM

Nope. although it is a mill in Ontario.

(off to google where the heck is Manitock...)

Daval 10-03-2006 04:39 AM

methinks its time for a hint?

fresnelly 10-03-2006 05:12 AM

The old mill in Aberfoyle, Ontario, near Guelph?

Leto 10-03-2006 08:18 AM

nope, not Aberfoyle. Hmmm, I konw Guelph, but I'm off to google another town I never heard of...

Daval, another hint is what you want? you got it:

You may be able to see this mill from the CN tower, or better yet, you probably can spot it from the top of the Drop Zone...

Daval 10-03-2006 11:03 AM

Black Creek Pioneer village?

Leto 10-03-2006 01:16 PM

Game on Daval! (good one!)


That mill is a working mill, and the flour that they make is used over in the village's restaurant. This year the wheel was being repaired because of ice damage sustained over the winter.

Next door to the mill is a cooper shop, where the cooper explained to me that a firkin is a barrel which holds 9 gallons.


Here's a link to a site that has almost the same pic as I took:

Daval 10-06-2006 04:37 AM

No. Not Morrisburg

Leto 10-06-2006 07:02 PM

close at all?

Scorps 10-08-2006 11:57 PM

I live in south-eastern Ontario and I have never seen that!

Leto 10-09-2006 09:40 AM

Napanee or Picton?

Daval 10-10-2006 11:10 AM

Sorry guys, I was away for the long weekend. You guys are pretty close. It is in the thousand islands area.

Leto 10-10-2006 12:38 PM

Gananoque or Rockport?

I see an American & Canadian flag in the background, so perhaps it is a border crossing like the Thousand Islands bridge...

Sticky 10-10-2006 01:30 PM

Landsdowne Ontario

splck 10-10-2006 09:38 PM

Is it in Gananoque?

Daval 10-11-2006 05:52 AM

Gananonque is correct - Game on Leto!

Leto 10-11-2006 06:55 AM

whoo hoo! (after living in Kingston for years, you would think that I would have that right off... Is that fish a muskie?)

Okay, here's a good one:

Sticky 10-11-2006 09:00 AM

Grand Bend?

Leto 10-12-2006 04:59 AM

Nope, this is not Grand Bend.

fresnelly 10-12-2006 05:14 AM

East end of the beach at Ashbridges bay in Toronto!

Leto 10-12-2006 07:59 AM

Game on Fresnelly!

a wonderful beach, and on that day there was a nice enough wind, that there were some people para-sailing over the water.

fresnelly 10-13-2006 05:10 AM

Sorry for the delay. Here's a fun one. :)

VW spider is from Kenora, Ontario.

Playing with the camera from my buddy's new apartment.

This is in Edmonton. That could have been guessed easily enough. I'd like to know where, and in what direction.

Leto 10-13-2006 10:20 AM

i see a sports stadium in the distance. is that Commonwealth Stadium?

Sticky 10-13-2006 10:58 AM

I believe Leto is right.

Some Google Mapping helped me find this
http://img47.imageshack.us/img47/7059/example1uy0.jpg

So the top pic is you taking a picture facing north. The big street on the right is Jasper Avenue.

Bossnass 10-13-2006 01:06 PM

Game on Sticky. Nice work.

I thought this would have taken a little longer. The panorama is centred NE, the river shot is pretty much due east.

I guessed the stadium would give it away. I also would have taken "Riverside Golf", a nice public course that is municipally run. Mostly I wanted an excuse to post the picture.

While it is a nice apartment, we joke that he has moved to the 'hood'. The building pretty much marks the end of Jasper Ave, then there is about a kilometer where its sketchy, then downtown proper, which is less sketchy (while on Jasper).

Fly 10-16-2006 06:48 AM

who's up fellas?

Leto 10-16-2006 07:43 AM

It's Sticky's game at the moment....

Sticky 10-16-2006 08:08 AM

oops, sorry. I thought it was going to be Leto and I was out for the whole weekend.

I like the Google Maps satelite shots.

Here is one.

In addition to the city your answer should identify at least one well know location (or landmark).

Leto 10-16-2006 10:27 AM

oh yes, that's Montreal, with Mcgill Stadium or I mean, Molson Stadium. site of a many a crushing defeat of the Redmen at the hands of the mighty Golden Gaels.

The treed slopes of Mont Royal are also visible to the left of the shot.

Sticky 10-16-2006 11:08 AM

What the &@$% is a Golden Gael.

By the way, you are right.
