Hello again friends.

It's hard to find the right words to describe just how overwhelming it feels to be here again in Ontario and to have that feeling combining with all these wonderful events that are happening with the upcoming concerts and all. I really am very lucky and very thankful.

A thought occurred to me that we should make a mention of the parking situation re McVeigh's pub.
A Google search of McVeigh's pub can help with directions etc.
I honestly do hate parking downtown, but....
Anyway, the pub's location is on the southwest corner of Church and Richmond Streets and Richmond is a one way street. It runs from east to west.
There is a parking lot next door to the pub on the south side of Richmond St. and that's where I usually park. There are other parking lots as well close by.
Richmond Street can be entered from either Church, Jarvis, or other streets which run north and south and are East of the pub.
As rates go with downtown parking in most big cities it's a tad pricey. Sometimes it's best to go with just the "flat rate" for the day. Most parking lots take credit cards but a few coins close at hand might be good.
I'll be online regularly to help "If you Need Me."

Cheers,

RJ.
