Oh Canada!

To me, one of the great things about Buffalo is it's proximity to Canada. Much like Seattle, Buffalo shares a lot with it's neighbor to the North - though, of course, Buffalo is even closer to Canada than Seattle is. I can literally leave my house and walk to the border in about 20 minutes across the Peace Bridge, which, as you can see by this photo, is in the process of being re-lit in a very cool way. Since discovering Canada decades ago I have visited quite often, venturing to Victoria, Vancouver, the Sunshine Coast, Whistler, Lake Louise, Jasper, Vancouver Island, and most recently, Toronto. Next up is Montreal and Quebec - and I can't wait! I simply think the Canadians have done so much right, and I have always had a wonderful time on my trips there.
