This is ground control to major Tom, eh. You've really made the graaade, eh.

Pity that I didn't know when you were coming. I was off the last two weeks and just got back to work, yesterday.

Yeah, my dates got all switched up at the last minute, but next time I ought to know with some advance notice. I usually work out of Peterborough for a few days, then drive down to Niagara Falls for a few days. This was the first time driving through Hamilton. It's kinda nice in the trees back there.

There are some nice, scenic riding roads up there, to the north of Hamilton, in the area of the town of Dundas (not Dundas Street). There are also a few roads that run up and down the Niagara Escarpment, but none of them are very long. Rattlesnake Point is a good place to stop for the view, and a picnic.

Yes, there's been some serious fallout from the Indian space programme.
