This time I can see it - the back bacon was just a question mark on my screen.
It's the CN Tower, which my dad worked on during its construction. (I think everyone's dad worked on it during construction.)

Cool. I want to visit Canada. Just go east to west and see as much as I can.
Anyone want to lease a rock star bus and travel Canada? Maybe 20 people...to two bathrooms... Nevermind.

(California to north of Peterborough, Ont. area.) Any takers for poop patrol? I think this is going to be a looong trip.

I wish I'd taken more pictures. :-(
I need to get more memory.
Dr. Bob, you take good pictures. :-)
I want to learn to take good pictures too.
Next time...

I love how Dr. Bob communicates to us using his photographs. :-)
Dr. Bob, you really like showing us your photos, don't you? :-)
You want the world to see them.
The world sees them. We see you. We see the "you" you let us see. We're listening Bob.

What's the tall slender one with bulbous features?
It seems so pristine dwarfed by the larger ones.

Clear Skies you need to keep a journal of your trip and post each day about your adventures. Especially about the poop patrol. Love Phillipa

Very cool. Dr. Bob has a real eye for composition.
I just take pictures. He creates art.

Is the CN Tower masculine or feminine?
Gramatically?
Freudically?

I will leave the Freud to those who can't figure out what that shape more closely resembles.

P.S. The bulgy bit has an observation deck, from which, on a clear day, one can discern the mist rising up from Niagara Falls. I am told, if the light is right, you can get a rainbow from it.
Also up there is one of the world's worst restaurants. You have been officially warned.
The elevators go up the outside. There is an internal staircase. Some people go up one way, and come down the other. It's just that kind of experience.
