We now need a shot of the giant potato that IIRC sits outside the PEI Potato Museum!

Meanwhile Ottawa has a Saturday Night Fever bear:

Getting an idea for this scheme on the Skyraider. Colourful, and I'm not sure if I've ever seen a model of one of New Brunswick's 'budworm bombers.' For non-Canadians, they were used by the forestry service to spray insecticide to control the spruce budworm, which was destroying a lot of trees.

Would look good on a Skkyraider  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Between the giant lobsters and the house sized potato, are you sure you're not cruising down Route 66?

Tomorrow we'll be away for 2 weeks in that sylvan paradise known as Killarney Provincial Park, just north of Lake Huron. Canoeing, fishing, hiking as much as my right knee will allow, and just generally relaxing. Might be able to check in from the odd WiFi spot, like when we decide to hit a restaurant.
