Hamilton Ontario


We keep moving on. A stiff wind today added to the challenge. Whenever we were within sight of Lake Ontario, it looked wild with spray and serious whitecaps.


This morning I was able to speak for a few minutes at the earliest church of the Pennsylvania Dutch settlers in Canada, begun in Vineland, ON, in 1801. I was also able to meet friends of my parents, Reesors and Fretz's, still living in the area.


We're on a borrowed computer at the moment - - we'll get photos added to the last three blogs in a few days. Friends of ours, Donna and Bob Parker are hosting us in Ancaster for a while as we round the end of the lake. High recommended is "It's All Greek to Me", a little restaurant in west Hamilton.



We're still pretty well on schedule in these last weeks. See the March 31 post for the itinerary. And we still plan to meet with media on the days and places listed on the May 21 blog.

  1. Hi there, looking forward to the photos from the last few posts. It was good to see you during your break.

    Let us know if you need an editorial team for your forthcoming book. In the meantime, we're praying for you nightly.

    Hope you enjoy the final leg of your journey.
