I really enjoyed Montreal. My bro was married there.
We bachelor partied there for the wedding in Maine, which I'll post some pics from later.
My bro-in-law's bachelor party was in Montreal.

Crazy weekend.

Been a bunch of other places, Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh... I have to say, this Rust Belt/Great Lakes Region is really nice in the summer.

I didn't really get great pictures this year, but had a wonderful time in Chicago again :megusta:

Maybe I'll dig up last year's pictures...

What area of Toronto would you recommend staying in? The only real requirement is the hotel having a larger surface lot to accommodate the Bang Bus.

Probably as close to work as possible, traffic is killer during rush hours. If you give me a budget and general area or street that you need to attend during the working hours then I could send you a list of hotels and even call ahead to make sure it works for bang bus.

I work in that town about twice a week. They have a plant that builds the RX and a sister plant that builds the Corolla!

Definitely! I'll probably be a group of us all going out to visit him, but we'll probably spend most our time in Toronto. No real plans have been made yet, but we're looking for mid-late fall.

All in all, probably the coolest place I've ever been. All of these pictures were taken on our potatoes, hiking, driving, etc.There is just an unbelievably diverse wealth of natural beauty to see here. 5/7 trip I'd recommend for anyone who likes outdoor shit, and worth the :waxer: price point.

It's definitely expensive as fuck :doe: , we spent like $5k and that was with 80% of the flights and 60% of lodging paid for with my points.
