The MacDonald Institute

by Yvonne.In knitting.

If you remember, I wrote a post a while ago about Adelaide Hoodless as part of my Canada 150 project.  Today I had the chance to walk through the MacDonald Institute, founded by Adelaide Hunter Hoodless at the University of Guelph. Such a gorgeous old building!  I particularly like the brick columns.
