Jerry's road report for today:

"The wind has been blowing from the southwest around 20 MPH ever since we left Québec City three days ago. And, wouldn't you know it, southwest is the direction we've been travelling in. Those 193 miles we covered to get to Montreal were hard-earned. I took a break from today's windy slog when I saw an old house open to the public. It was the home of Rosalie Cadron-Jetté, founder of the Sisters of Misericorde, a Catholic religious order dedicated to the care of unwed mothers and their children. Even though the house was closed today the director, Sophie, and her assistant, Sebastien, took me on a tour of the house. The house dates from the late 18th century. Here are a few photos. (Of course this only convinces Lee more than ever that I'm an agent of the Catholic Church.)"

Lee actually took a lot of pics, which I haven't posted here. But you can see them if you follow the link to his RWGPS track . . . it was a pretty ride.
