O’ Canada, Where Art Thou?

On November 1st, I crossed the bridge from St. Stephen, New Brunswick into Calais, Maine. I will admit that I felt a twinge of sadness as I left the country that was my home for the last 3 months. It was a great trip. Sure there were ups and downs, but as I look back at the entire experience, I feel very lucky to have been able to take this journey.

As I crossed the bridge, I saw a gas station right across the border. Only $2.25/gallon for gas! Wow, maybe I shouldn’t feel so sad (for those of you in the US, gas in Canada is about $4/gallon….yikes!). But I will miss the Maple Dip donut from Tim Hortons, listening to CBC radio, and most importantly all of the people I met and the amazing landscapes I saw.

I realize that this blog has some holes in it. I guess the photographs came first. I really enjoyed writing here, but I found that it took a lot more time than I planned. I suppose I could have just put in simple entries, but I enjoyed the descriptive text.

Thanks for following along and I hope you enjoyed reading about my Canadian experience and viewing the photographs.

Take care,
Jason
