With just a couple of days to go, that will include a partial (gravel) crossing of the beautiful Parc Gatineau, our last night of camping might be our favourite. Our target is Quyon, Quebec, a three horse town. The main one being a ferry that will next day transfer us one final time across the Ottawa River back into Ontario.
Earlier investigation, confirmed when we arrived that the town is “Still Standing”, but barely. Our hopes of a mentioned food truck were not exaggerated and we were in for some great eats. The third horse and sometimes the mainstay of a cycle tourist, the local gas bar filled in all the rest we’ll need, including some wonder chats with the locals, for a great stay.
Gone to the wayside, the town was once host to one of the province’s largest Jamborees. We’ll take a heaping helping of some leftover hospitality and get some extra shelter from some heavy summer weather that was passing through, eventually providing us with some fine dinnertime scenes and a pot of gold. (It’s all pretty bad as I think we were also watching a documentary about people cooking, eating,….)
That pot being pulled pork, half side of ribs, Texas Poutine, onion rings,…..
(it was our last night!!!!)
