2 Canadian ranches in 'Fall for North America on these 8 Horse Ranch Holidays'

@danielles_lens There is no better place in which to snap autumn's kaleidoscope of colours than the USA and Canada. At this time of year, its larger-than-life landscapes bathe in a sea of fiery reds, brilliant oranges and shimmering golds, and there are plenty more options than New England. Best of all, you can take in these spellbinding 360-degree views from the saddle. Leading riding holiday specialist Ranch Rider has selected seven properties (the list includes working, guest, dude, and…

One of the world's oldest religious monuments is 'Canada's Stonehenge' in Alberta

Just came across this in BBC Travel. The Iniskim Umaapi medicine wheel, on a windswept hill on the prairie of remote southern Alberta near Blackfoot Crossing Historical Park, dates back some 5,000 years. It's a fascinating tale - read it here.

Ed, I won't even walk on their glass floor! No way in hell am I doing this. (Okay, I'm a freelancer. If you're a market paying $10 a word and assigning 2,000-word features, I'll do it.)

There's a new Edge Walk around the perimeter of the CNN Tower in Toronto. Granted, participants get a safety harness, but psychologically I really need that railing, so I'd probably pass on this one. Would you do it?

Karin - I am surprised you remember that Buffalo News story since it was back in 2007 and yes we got a huge response to Maria's story. People in Buffalo love coming to Toronto.

Maria ceraulo wrote about the boatel several years ago with an amazing reaction. She is with buffalo news. I know she was thoroughly impressed.

Let us know what you end up doing, JoAnna, and enjoy Toronto. Great town.

The Boatel (boat bed & breakfast) is Toronto's most unique bed & breakfast and offers media rates. A night or two on a boat... how devine.

JoAnna, I've stayed at the Drake Hotel, which could not be quirkier, and I loved it. Sure, I was 30 years older than the next-oldest guest, but I'm open-minded. Really, I got a kick out of the carefully designed rooms and the art and the whole scene. I believe they still offer media or comped stays, too. There's a sentence or two on the place in this story as well as a link to the hotel site. http://www.tripatini.com/profiles/blogs/6-best-toronto-dining-deals

My husband went to Niagara on the Lake when we went to the G. B. Shaw Festival. The performances were wonderful. I do hope the younger generation does not forget how smart and funny Shaw was. Also, the town of Niagara on the Lake was delightful.
