Artist's Paradise
... Saint-Paul is located, it immediately became apparent why so many artists, musicians, writers and poets have fallen in love with this area. Jeff and I stopped our car and got out to take in the striking views. There was an incredible light that reflected against the mountains which contrasted against the Saint Lawrence River.
