Thursday July 8 - 1937 Left the Pike Lodge at 8 A.M. In Highgate Centre and Highgate Sore. Found the place as I had. Then started for Montreal. Passed Highgate Spring at 9.30 A.M. Did not go into the city but crossed the great river on the new Jacques Cartier Bridge. Had lunch about 20 miles cast at a road house known as The Catering Lte - imitation log houses a most curious amateur French archi- tecture. The chicken dinner was good. Then motored on cast at Three Rivers I was a bit tired out and so concluded to go farther. Put up at a rather fancy French Hotel Chateau de Blois. A very hot day riding through small villages with individualistic small curious homes and more curious still strips of the door to the second floor.
