Canada Day Plans
Jun. 28th, 2011 08:32 pmOr rather, the lack of them is what I'm trying to figure a solution to.
I'm not going downtown to Parliament Hill (again) this year. Anything with a British Royal is going to make things just too crazy for me.
But I'd like to get out of the house to do something to mark the occasion.
The only thing I can think of right now is doing another instalment of one of my long-term "miscellaneous" goals: crossing the entire distance of the Ottawa urban area's riverfront via the bike/walking paths. I've done Centretown from Scott Street to the Rideau Canal and from Voyageur Drive in Orléans to Ogilvie Road in Beacon Hill so far. Next up, methinks, is from Ogilvie to Rockcliffe Airport and the Aviation Museum next door to it.
Any alternative suggestions that wouldn't involve being in the downtown core?
Geography sidebar: "Hello!" to newcomers from the following neighbourhoods:
Spring Grove, Illinois!
Astoria, Oregon!
Utica, Michigan!
Anaheim, California!
Good to "see" you and I hope we get to talk someday!
