One Potato, Two potato ..

 
Saturday 27th September    Breakfasting on coffee and doughnuts in my tent at dawn - who needs Tim Horton's?
 
 
 Coming into potato land. This area is renowned for its potatoes, and this was taken riding through Florenceville, where global French fries and frozen foods company McCain was started up in 1957 by the four McCain brothers.
 
This hirsute gentleman was waiting for me on the trail - Brad McBrine who rode his horse from near Florenceville to North Bay, Ontario over twenty years ago.

Arrived around midday at our next stopover with Heather Salmon, husband Shaun and two cute kids Rowan and Willow, near Bath.  Heather has a small home business making cakes, and she was busy producing her next creation for a birthday party that afternoon, a very elaborate process involving preparation...
concentration......

titivation....
and finally DA-DAH.....
A fabulous evening view over the St John River valley from the hill behind the house
before feasting on green waffles and maple syrup...
 
Family photo, but Shaun looks very serious and Willow has gone to bed....
