Home Again, Home Again, Jiggity Jig

Actually, I got home last night.

Wednesday morning, I visited Fort Henry in Kingston and saw a bunch of cool stuff. Similar to Fort Erie, but bigger! Instead of a musket demonstration, a rifle demo. The demonstrator tried to break the record of 12 shots in a minute. The mechanism got gummed up and he had to give up after eight. That was eight chances for a cool photo... I haven't reviewed my shots yet; hopefully, at least one of them turned out well. There was also another cannon demo, and a longer tour of a much larger fort.

I did manage to stop by Gananoque briefly. I investigated the Thousand Island Boat Tour that departs there, without any real intention of taking it. I just had lunch and then continued on my way.

I continued along highway 2 until the 416 then took it straight home. The only thing that I regret, in returning a day earlier than planned (not that I had any solid plan anyway), is that I missed Upper Canada Village. But as I said before, I'd been yearning to come home, so it was very nice to be back.
