Happy Earth Day (And National Parks Week)!

I promised at least a picture of a great North American river last post, and I just had to post something on Earth Day, so here we are, the Ottawa River, great gateway to the west for generations upon generations of Canadians.  This is just past where it connects to the Mattawa River, which further connects the St. Lawrence downstream with the Upper Great Lakes by way of Lake Nippissing and the French River.  The valley is probably among the most scenic parts of Ontario.  Next post we can get a bit more in depth perhaps.
