Hi! I live in Mont Saint-Hilaire. I would really like to go. I'll check with my husband to see if he can drive me... I just arrive here and I'm afraid to end up in Alaska... How long would it take to get there from Montreal's South Shore?

An easy drive from Montreal and Ottawa

Hi Hervé, Are you in Quebec City? I am quite far from both provincial capitals (Toronto and Quebec City) but if you wish to do some camping along the way, there are beautiful parks along the north shore of Lake Ontario and the Saint Lawrence river. For more info on that, please contact me. Those looking for a hotel or B&B, please contact me. I will be happy to help organise reservations, etc, and know the owners of a few of these establishments. I would suggest making th... See more

I will be happy to help organise reservations, etc, and know the owners of a few of these establishments. I would suggest making these reservations soon; with wedding season upon us, sometimes last-minute bookings are difficult, particularly if you have a particular inn in mind. I can't wait Nancy ▲ Collapse

Hi Nancy
I'm qtaying in St jean sur Richelieu, that's just 100 miles away and with my (girl)friend, we were thinking of having a look upsream at the St Lawrence from an Ontarian point of view. I should be there at the beginning of July but she is the usual driver (and chief organizer) ). We already spoke about the idea and I'll let you know what comes out of it.

programme : suggestions welcome
Jun 9, 2004
Hi again, I am open to suggestions for a programme to follow. I've hosted two previous powwows, one in winter and one in summer. The winter one was held at a restaurant and mainly centred on Proz.com. It was a luncheon affair that broke up around 4.00 or 5.00. The summer powwow was held outdoors, poolside, starting mid-afternoon, on a Friday, and libations and food were plentiful. It was far more relaxed - people were free to move around and mingle. I liked that format best. After... See more

The summer powwow was held outdoors, poolside, starting mid-afternoon, on a Friday, and libations and food were plentiful. It was far more relaxed - people were free to move around and mingle. I liked that format best. After everyone had eaten, "business" came out - of course we talked shop all day, but also swam and played with kids and made jokes and friends. I think we could set aside an hour after supper, maybe, to discuss things ProZian - so far, two moderators plus the owner will be there (you can't back out now, Henry!!!) Ideas? We could also discuss this on the forums ▲ Collapse

Where is this town?
Jun 25, 2004
Actually Marcus, it's the County of South Stormont. I live in the country, north-west of Cornwall and south-east of Ottawa. Try to find Avonmore and Long Sault; my house is on the corner at the half-way point between them. Nancy

Jul 8, 2004
That's how it was at Louise's last year,and it turned out perfect. If the weather is fine(let's hope, because the house is being renovated);-) we'll have a couple of bonfires when it gets dark. Nancy
