I know you're thinking this doesn't look like Victoria. And you're right, it's near a place that is now little more than a junction, called Cappon, in the province of Alberta. I visited there a few days ago for a family reunion and took this photo on the old family homestead. It's a car I'd never heard of until I saw this one and a friendly cousin gave me a little of its history. It was called the Star Car and was produced by the Durant Motor Company during the 1920s. I'm now on the road heading back towards Victoria but I won't be back until the weekend so you'll have to bear with my vacation photos for a few more days.
