DP~Hmmm.  Sounds like Timmins.

Bin there.. but I wasn't quite that far north this time.
Really just about half way between Parry Sound and Sudbury
but there's not a lot of towns to refer to in that area.
(Point au Barrel was close)

I was in an area that is referred to as an 'unorganized' township.
That means that if you call the fire department, you'd better
hope they know you because there are no street names or numbers.
I was giving house location descriptions as, "3rd left and then
first right after the general store - two story house with
blue roof...  (Just past brown dog..)    B)
