From Ottawa

Just a quick post from Ottawa this morning. Yesterday, in Edmunston, we awoke to frost on the car and a little ground fog in the valleys as we set out on the highway.  In eastern Quebec we were on recently updated highways so Penny had no idea where we were at times. Montreal traffic was a bit crazy, even on a Sunday afternoon but we made it through and arrived in Ottawa around 4 PM.

Thanks to Bill & Janna for our first home cooked meal in weeks and it was great to meet their two beautiful little girls Anika and Bryn.

After an evening walk around parts of the city we watched as much of the lunar eclipse as the developing overcast would permit. Today we will try to see a bit of the Capital. The temperatures should be comfortable but it looks like we may have to dodge a few rain drops.
