I can see it already..when you get to footloose's area, you will want to spend at least 2 days there, if time is spent talking with the guide/curator at each site. There will be 3 different sites for you to see in that area...which we saw last summer.
I understand that at the Buxton site there is some sort of annual event..during the summer which footloose may know more about.

I happened to be working in the area of Uncle Tom's Cabin today so stopped around at the museum on my lunch break. It's not officially open for the season yet (opens on the Canadian Victoria Day long weekend in May) but I was pretty sure Steve and Brenda would be there, getting things ready and they were.

The Buxton National Historic Site has a Homecoming Weekend celebration but that is held on the Labour Day weekend in Sept.
Have you decided on a date yet for the rest of your trip?

Thanks Footloose for the information. I don't htink it will be this summer. I'm looking more towards this same time next year.
You know, I am so whipped and so tired to the point that I should not want to see a bike any time soon. but I can't seem to stay off of that darn "crazy guy on a bike" touring site. I look at that site and I'm ready to go again, as if I don't know what's already out there waiting...........That's the fever
