1966 Oldsmobile Delta 88

For many years, Lorraine drove a turquoise, two-door Oldsmobile Delta 88: a fine car. Here's a nice image of a very similar car (it's a 1967 model, not quite the same colour), thanks to the internet.

Visiting Toronto

During a number of summer vacations, Bill, Lorraine and family would drive for many hours to visit family in the vicinity of Toronto, Ontario. We often stayed with Lorraine's mother, Jessie Collins, in her two-bedroom, sixteenth-floor (!) apartment in Don Mills. (Photo shown not actual size.)

Driving in Ontario in the late 50s and early 60s

Cameron Bevers has created a web site detailing the History of Ontario's King's Highways.  Full of over 6,300 historical and current photos, as well as route maps, signs, and more this site is a treasure trove for anyone who drove in Ontario, as Bill most definitely did!
