What a time for me to be on vacation, with the idiocy of the bike lane on Jarvis Street going un-commented upon (OK, some might call 'idiocy' an implied comment), and the announced price of the Chevrolet 'stop calling it a hybrid' Volt ($41,000 US) likewise escaping logical analysis - because like all electrics, it defies logic.
If I can find Internet access where I'm going (a prize for the first person who tells me where Surprise Lake is...) I'll try to drop in now and then.

I went to a cabin on Smyth Lake, northeast of South River that was billed as "Surprise Lake"...

Northern Ontario, I think it's actually part of a park.

Well, there's a Surprise Lake 60 mi from New York City. And one in British Columbia. And one in Washington State.
So, what's my prize!

Er, no cigar, I'm afraid. None of those was the Surprise Lake I was at!

Great detective work, but:
No, no and no!
Sorry...
