A drive & a detour

Part of our plan was to spend a couple of days on Cape Breton so we could visit the Alexander Graham Bell museum in Baddeck (prounounced BaDECK) Alec & his wife Mabel loved the area for its similarity to Scotland, set up a laboratory & lived to the end of his life here at 75. He was very loved by his wife, family and friends. This museum emphasized his generous nature, devotion to his family (two daughters) and several grandchildren. His inventive genius with airplanes, hydrofoils and genetics demonstrated the diversity of his interests. He wanted to be most remembered for his work with the deaf(including his wife Mabel). His descendants still own the house nearby.
