How nice to see another Alexnote (and, I found it! ;-)). Looks and sounds like you had a lovely walk. That bridge with the kayak - you did make me look up the difference between a kayak and a canoe - nicely captured.
I love architecture and that definitely looks like a place I should go walk around in, if I ever make it to Ottawa. Thanks also for the history lesson. The name "bytown" made me smile. I realize that it was named after that colonel - it's just the historical linguist in me reads that as "towntown".
What a pleasure to see your article and this wonderful Alexnote sketch. I love the architecture of these charming houses. A step back in time when homes reflected a certain character and individuality. They seem to have withstood their age very well.
Thomas McKay certainly left his mark on Ottawa. An interesting history.
The late afternoon sun on the Minto bridge with the lone kayaker is a lovely photo. And your sketches are always a special treat.
So nice you were out on this spring day. Thank you for this treat. I’ve missed Alexnotes.
What a welcome surprise to wake up to. Thank you.
