My Day in Kingston, Ontario

I spent the day in the amazingly beautiful city of Kingston, Ontario.  So many buildings made of limestone and brick. This town seems to value the old buildings and the unique architecture that comes with them.

Be sure to click on the first photo to be taken to a larger view of them. They look so much better when they are larger.

 Fort Henry was covered in ice and snow from a storm the week before.

I nearly broke my neck walking up the stairs and pathways to try to get these shots.

surrounded my snow, so not the best of views...too treacherous to try to walk around
