I used to work in Corner Brook, Newfoundland. Now, after the Battle on the Plains of Abraham when Capt. Cook had shown how to navigate the St. Lawrence river, where the river narrows (in Mik'maq, the word for where the river narrows is Quebec), the English naval or military lords had won a settlement from France to turn over part of the lands in Newfoundland previously controlled by them. 1st they wanted all of the lands around Newfoundland surveyed. & Cook was given the job. Suffice it to say, you might enjoy googling for "Cook Monument, Corner Brook, NL." Newfoundland is also where Cook learned how to go without fresh food and not get scurvy. & of course, that's how he managed to go on all of those other, longer voyages.
Now, your challenge name. You see there's one 'town' I've been meaning to tackle, photo wise. Only, to do so meant getting up EARLY, for daylight, but little traffic.
So, to next post.

I am looking forward to your photos. We have been to Corner Brook a couple of times. Newfoundland is one of our favorite places.
