Mount Seymore? How ever you spell it!

I'm going to go with Blackcomb mountain. Although it might be whistler?

That's the location of the last spike on the CPR.
It's in (or near) Craigellachie, just south of Revelstoke. |
Charlatan, are you fucking autistic? Do you count your toothpicks in groups of 83?
How in all that is merciful do you get these pics so fast? Are you immortal, and travel the land actually witnessing the monuments being built? Do you have a search picture GUI running on your desktop? I MUST KNOW!!! |
BigBen, he wont fess up. I already asked if there's anywhere that he doesn't know.
On the other hand, don't you just LOVE the BC flag? It's (other than our Maple Leaf) my all-time favourite flag. |
I will take these two reponses as confirmation that I am correct...
In answer to your questions: The amount of trivia that lives in my head is ridiculous. If I could replace it with useful information, I could take over the world. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...1/1c5f2c79.jpg |

Is that the church in Cheticamp, NS?
I hope so, cause I'm going to fuck you up on my next pic. Mwuahhahahahahahhaha |
Nope... I will post some clues if no one gets it by noon today. (this is a tough one but I know of at least two members on the TFP that know where this is).
|
I know that church...
Alas, I must wait for clues. It looks mighty familiar, but I'm not sure where I've seen it. |
Quote:
hmmm... i wonder if it is up by your cottage area... |
If it's not, there's one very like it near there. That wooden cross in particular is sparking my memory, but I just can't quite place it.
|
Here's another picture of the church and a clue:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...1/5f0a5038.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...1/c995caf8.gif |
Another clue:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...1/6c277af0.jpg |
I know that church...
It's the Catholic Church on the Hill in Wilno, Ontario.... between Golden Lake and Barry's Bay!!! Where did you get those pictures???? Since I got it, I need to know how to post a picture here... somebody PM me. |
If that's true, then I was way off. I was scouring Quebec. :rolleyes:
|
Daoust is bang on correct... (I knew you'd get it eventually).
By the way, the first clue was suppose to indicate Poland. Wilno is the first Polish settlement in Canada. http://www.biega.com/photoalbum/wilno1.jpg The second clue was a painting by Alex Sztasko, Czech immigrant who lived near Wilno. The original of this painting is hanging in the Wilno Tavern (a great place for beer, live music and good perogies). |

See if this works... This is another church... but from where??? http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...979/church.jpg |
is that the 2nd Baptist Church (i think is the name) in Aurora? Wayne's World Aurora that is...
:lol: |
Incorrect... but not close at all.
|
Narrowing it down, I'd say Eastern Canada as in Ontario, PEI, NS or NB
|
That is one of the Churches in Killaloe, Ontario.
Calvary Baptist... by the way. |
|
The Boer War monument on University Ave. in Toronto.
|
Game on Fresnelly...

Charlatan, I think that's a banquet hall, somewhere along Highway 410, south of Brampton. Am I close? |
Quote:
hehe... just poised here, waitin, to get my toe in.... |
Charlatan,
it's supposed to be pictures in Canada! :lol: :lol: |

|
Hmmm. I've seen it but I can't place it. I suppose it could be a temple or mosque too. This could take me awhile. I also have visions of exotic Vaughn in my head.
|
I'll give a hint...
It's a Hindu Temple. |
Is it the one on Brock Road, between the 401 and the 407?
|
Nope... Wrong end of town.
|
would this by any chance be.. ohhhh let's see:
Hindu Mississauga JayaDhurka Thavsthaman?? at approx Dixie & Derry? |
No. This is within the Toronto city limits.
|
Wow... this is really stumping people.
One more clue... it is in the North West end of Toronto. Additionally, I don't see it on the Google Satellite map... Those images are from at least 2002. This building is newer than that. |
Ya got me, brother, I've been googling like crazy and coming up emptier than Lord Ganesh at a premiere of Madagascar!
|
I'm driving up to Orangeville tomorrow. Will I pass it by?
|
What route are you taking?
|
yes, I've been googling too. It's amazing how many Hindu temples are in Toronto. some of them have pretty decent (rockin) flash intros with music (much to the enjoyment of my office-mates). None of the sites actually have pics of the buildings tho.
You've stumped us. (off to look for a Hindu colleague...) |
427N -> 401w -> 410N -> 10N -> Orangeville
|
Nope. You'd come close but you would miss it.
(I will give you a few more minutes and then I will submit another photo). |
OK. That was harder than I thought it would be.
It was a picture of the Shree BAPS Swaminarayan Hindu Temple. It's is located at 61 Claireville Drive, Toronto (Finch and 427). Quote:
Here's a new photo. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...1/8bc246e5.jpg |

Horseshoe Bay?

Bowen island on the left, Gambier on the right and Van isle in the background? |

Is the location of the camera somewhere near Broughton and Pacific?

Sometime this afternoon, WTF? I need to feed my addiction now!

The ceiling in flyman's house?

Quote:
i am in awe. That one came right out of your ass. It is, in fact, ass-worthy! Your pic, Charlatan, I believe is the ceiling of the old Bank of Commerce building lobby in downtown toronto. |
Right out of my ass... no question. :lol:
By the way, game on Leto. |
