Howdy!

As I said yesterday, I was on Île Sainte-Hélène earlier this week, and the haut-gamme, fancy-ass, upscale and real expensive restaurant Hélène de Champlain closed and they are doing some sort of renovations on it. But what I didn’t know and fascinated me was the rose garden in front of it. Next year I’m going to have to go back earlier in the season. because it was kind of slim pickings in mid-September.
