Maple syrup and poutine

I've only tried poutine one time.  It was at a Canadian themed diner in Dallas.  It's just French fries, cheese curds and brown gravy.  Maybe I'll like it more when I travel to the source.

In about a week, we're back at it again.  Cas and I will take our now annual July trip, starting with a flight to Vancouver, British Columbia.  We'll be there for a few nights, then we'll get on the fancy train.  We'll get off the train in Jasper, Alberta for a few nights at a national park.  After that, it's back on the train to Toronto, Ontario.  We stay there for just one night, then we're on to Niagara Falls.  We've got a very fancy hotel booked for the night of our second anniversary, then we're staying somewhere a little more reasonable for a few nights. 
After all of that, we head back home.  Cas has looked up the average temperatures in all the various spots we plan to visit during July in years past, and the most excellent news is that the highs range from 75-85 degrees.  We may have chosen the precise right time to leave Dallas.  I'll be keeping everyone up to date as our adventure progresses, and I'll be on the lookout for good beer, maple syrup and gourmet poutine.
