I wanna walk with you everywhere. Walking by day, doing a whole bunch of everything else by night or otherwise. Also Fleetwood Walking Guy over on Twitter.

This evening's pre-Halloween walk started on Bank Street in the Glebe, did a few streets in The Glebe before crossing Bronson and heading towards Booth, Preston and Little Italy, all to see the Halloween decorations, including some impressive Halloween lawns.

Today's walk was in the east end of Gatineau, starting at the SupermarchΓ© Metro on Boulevard Maloney Est and went on a walk of the nearby area, in search of three covered bridges.

Unfortunately, some time was lost when I had to backtrack due to an unexpected fence.

Today's walk... inspired by a bus schedule....

Started in the Glebe, went over to the Pretoria Bridge and then down Lees Avenue, a short detour along Mann and Chapel and then took the full length of King Edward down to Rideau Falls before returning the same way.

The one out in Rockland that closed is going to be a Winners.... so maybe not that one.

Today's walk started in Hull at Casino du Lac Leamy (during daylight!) with free parking. Then I went up to Les GalΓ©ries de Hull and Boulevard Saint-Joseph, through the Wrightville neighborhood and along Boulevard Moussette, then through the Parc de la Montagne area a bit.

Third and final walk today. Starting at Convent Glen Mall. A short but sweet off-season walk on Taffy Lane in Orleans, best known for its' over-the-top Christmas lights in December. A walk I do every December.

Started just off Innes Road and the 10th Line and went on a walk around Orleans, mostly the Queenswood Heights and Fallingbrook areas, and around Innes and the 10th Line.

BREAKING: Hillary Clinton strongly criticized Donald Trump for trying to pressure Jimmy Kimmel. This is exactly the kind of bold leadership we need today.

If this became a weekly series, it would run longer than The Simpsons.

If they didn’t want people to come back here, they shouldn’t leave comfortable chairs lying around. Or the doors unlocked.

Doors that are left open are also fair game.

If they’re left unlocked, they’re fair game. Regardless of what’s on the door.

Tour de Costco.

Another long ass Montreal bike ride.

Started at Parc Jarry, went east towards Villeray and Saint-Michel areas, before reversing west and heading towards Outremont, UniversitΓ© de Montreal, CΓ΄te-des-Neiges and Westmount to eventually end downtown at Place Ville-Marie.

Not a McDonald’s. But Restaurant Deli plus. Montreal. Corner of Papineau et Villeray just off the 40.

Can we get some love for these yellow vinyl benches ?

Always love these Thursday night Latin bands at the casino, but singing the Macarena really cheapens the whole experience.

Sometimes you just gotta cook and eat a bunch of potatoes, and nothing else

Today's walk was an Annual Waking Guy tradition on Labour Day. A walk around Ottawa U as Frosh week is going on and then around Sandy Hill as university students move in.

Tried to cover as many streets as possible, but obviously can't cover every street....

Easy choice for me. Montreal, I can come back the same night and not pay an arm and a leg for a hotel room.

Children born when these cones were first placed on the sidewalk under the Bank Street 417 underpass are now taking their first steps and saying their first words. #PutAConeOnIt

Saturday afternoon bike ride in Montreal. Started at Parc Laurier in the Plateau, went out to the east end mostly via rue Saint-Zotique Est, almost to Saint-Leonard. Then back downtown to finish at Berri-UQAM.
