Kenora Ont

While here for a family reunion, I got these lovely shots of the Lake of the Woods. Incredible history here as it is the home of our ancestors - my Grandparents. Such beauty. The city of Kenora sits on the banks

 
Float planes are common in this area as a means of travel for both commerce and pleasure.
 
 
Devil's Gap Rock, Accessible by boat only Devil's Gap Rock is not exactly a spirit rock although it is a very popular attraction. It was painted as a prank in 1894 by two brothers and over the years has been repainted by others. There is no road to the rock but it can be viewed by boat.
 
 
Boat houses located on one of the many islands on Lake of the Woods.

The Joker is on You!

 
This incredible specimen was located at our motel in Ignace Ont. The owner of the motel was an avid collector of life size Super Heros and cartoon characters. This one of the Joker stood about 7' tall and reality of his hair screamed out Photo.

Blind River Ont

After a long day of driving, we settled in the small town of Blind River for the night. Not much time for picture taking as trying to make miles today.

Rose Mallow

We came across this plant at a grocery store. The blossoms were huge and plentiful and so beautiful. Yellow and white were also available.
