Recommended Posts

Hi , i am here this morning at the Chateau Montebello coming to you live , the red carpet has just been rolled out in anticipation of the arrival of OFC's one and only Mod Roy and his wife as they come to enjoy their morning brunch . We are now gathered out at the main entrance to the Chateau , awaiting to catch a glimpse of their arrival .

I fish right in front of it on many occasions, it's truly a remarkable structure, and a beautiful area. Enjoy your brunch!

You are so right , and for our readers this morning we do have a camera set up pointing towards the river to see if Roy will be out there trying his luck after brunch .

We just noticed they are starting to set this morning tables for brunch and we have seen no sign of Roy & J coming thry the front gates as of yet . Its possible that we may have missed them but more likely there were brought in thru the V.I.P entrance . I just checked with security up on the roof and they enform that a group of people were escorted in thru the side of the building . Stay tuned as we move inside .

It was very nice, Dann. Except for the few minutes lost being shielded from the one thoothed, 2mega pixel point and shoot toting autograph seekers, we had a fine day.

 

Matt, just east (maybe 500 yards) of CM there is a baseball diamond and on shore there are dozens of fairly new docks waiting to be dropped in the water. There are a good bunch of picnic tables as well. Would you happen to know if that is a public launch? It appears to be . We took a quick drive up the road to Papineauville as well and there are a couple of launches there.

HMMMM I think the ferry you're referring to is between Fassett QC. and Lefaivre On. and that would be the other way....east. The Cumberland ferry would be at least 45kms West of Papineauville between Cumberland On. and Masson-Angers, Qc.

I should have taken out the map .... lol, Last time thru there it was at Fassett where we stayed , not an easy place to fine a motel at 1:00 in the morning when you don't want to pay the starting rate of 695.00 a night at CM . How ever the 300.00 VIP suite at Fassett had us sleeping well in no time . Sorry bout the pic's from inside CM, very dim lighting in there and hard to take pictures if you don't bring extra lighting with you .

Apart from the yacht club at Montebello , the closest launch I know of Roy is the one in Papineauville, right at the end of the main drag. Forget the name of the street but it was named after some Quebec politician. Henri Bourassa?

 

It would be nice to have a new ramp closer to CM.
