Cool pics. That mountain in the background of the second picture looks very like a mountain here in Ireland.

Had to check this out on GoogleEarth. Discovered the nearby community of Diligent River. I'm a placename fanatic, so Diligent River is a very interesting choice that someone make long, long ago. Makes a stranger wonder which definition of the word diligent was intended.

Stumbled onto a Youtube video of an abandoned church in the Diligent River area as well as a link to hiking instructions around the narrow canyons present.

Yes its an interesting place. Lots of cool places with weird names around here. A little farther down the road from Diligent is Port Greville, an old ship building village in the late 1800's. Farther down again is Spencers Island, home of the Mary Celeste. you can google that one, quite the mystery.

The story of the Mary Celeste is one of those great mysteries that will probably never be solved to everyone's satisfaction.

Heck, I was thinking that was near Port Asbestos for a moment. But I'm pretty sure that is in Ontario.
