Return of the living dead

So I'm back from my trip to upstate New York and Toronto. As anticipated, I had a fricking blast at all stops and at all points in between. Funny how good, clean fun (ahem) leaves one so exhausted. Yet I have crawled to my keyboard to bring you the tale of my travels. (Well, this is after a hike to Kidd Valley for a bacon cheeseburger and then to Bottleworks for a supply of local beer. Good, clean fun, I tell you.)
