I live in Kingston, Ontario on the St Lawrence. We have Fort Henry and Fort Frontenac here in Kingston and Fort Welington is about an hour away in Prescott. Sackets Harbor the location of Fort Pike in the US is not too far away either.

Looks like it might work now - Test

Just managed to add a photo on another thread. Strange?

Test photo. Just tried twice and does not work.
