"I have travelled around the globe. I have seen the Canadian Rockies, the American Rockies, the Andes and the Alps and the Highlands of Scotland; but for simple beauty, Cape Breton outrivals them all."

For some reason, possibly the reference to the Highlands of Scotland, Alexander Graham Bell comes to mind. While most Americans think of him as an American inventor, he was born in Scotland, and lived for a few years in Canada before settling in the US. Towards the end of his life, he moved back to Canada.

Yup. That name rings a .........never mind.

That's the man DG. Nova Scotia. Here's a picture of his Estates near Baddeck where the Bell's are buried.
