   To Ohio and West Virginia, then Ontario for three weeks, then back home via the Yellow Head Highway and Jasper National Park.

   This trip coincided with Memorial Day in the US. Our goal - to do some genealogy research - look for  cemetery markers in Ohio and West Virginia, and visit with family. 

   Then it was off to Base Borden in Ontario to visit our son and meet Grace, his fiancée. 

   While in Ontario, we did some exploring and visited with friends and family.
