The first will be the same, except we’ll work our way through the alphabet. The second and third will be different each time.

Eh to Zed
For this round of the alphabet I am going to celebrate Canada's 150 birthday by showcasing towns across the county.
We'll be criss-crossing across the country, from the Atlantic coast of the Maritime provinces of Nova Scota, New Brunswick and PEI to Ontario then to Alberta back to Ontario and into Quebec and then way out west to the Pacific coast in British Columbia. We also stop in Manitoba, Saskatchewan. We covered 9 of the 10 provinces.

...I sure love your glow!
ReplyDeleteHi Jackie, geography and history have never been my strong topics, so I had no idea that Canada is only 150 years old! I hope I understood that correctly and am not embarrassing myself? The Queen Elizabeth rose is a very pretty colour as is the sunset. I was gping to say no food today? But I suppose veg counts!
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up with the 'MMBC.

She certainly has been across the pond many times, but I think those days are now over.
ReplyDeleteThose bunches of beets look scrumptious - I do love them roasted. I think I have been to Regina but only once, so it's not that familiar to me, so interesting to read about.
ReplyDeleteOur queen has travelled much and is still going strong, thank goodness. Love the sunset image. Have a great week ahead.
