I was heading back down from up north ontario and stopped in for coffee and baked goods at the 150 year old cafe (

then as I walked back to my car I looked up and noticed the sign 'Gordon Lightfoot Ave.' along the small roadway leading to the old book store...the sign was actually behind some protective wire as I imagine more than one fan has tried to remove it and take it home to their shrine, I'm not mentioning any names, char
lol
did the 2001 Massey gang, who did the Orillia trek happen to get a group photo there?
btw, thanks for the tip, char...there were lots of black bears ...applying that bear spray can save your life...i guess it smells like bear poop, which they enjoy sniffing but rarely consume
