Nice, Sarah. Your posts always amaze me. I learn so much!! Loved to read the history… especially the First Nations and the wooden printing press. Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

I didn’t even know about the Battle of Queenston. Can’t imagine this beautiful area having such a violent past. The printery and Laura Secord homestead look like a must visit in the area! I totally agree with you – Queenston Heights Park is so much more than just a park

In reply to Josy A.

Thank you so much Josy! We really do live in an amazing area to experience fall – we are so lucky! Eventually I think I’d like to take on the challenge of hiking the entirety of the Bruce Trail but I have some planning to do!

I agree – a lot of people don’t realize the role the First Nations had during the war, but it’s nice to see they are acknowledging it! 🙂

In reply to Rachael Brown. That's awesome! I'll have to check Nelsons Column out. To be honest I haven't heard much about the American side so I have some research to do. I find it fascinating too!
