Bloke with the telescope is looking “yon”. Piano (Grand) Coke container (can), guy with telescope looking (yon). Ergo Grand Canyon.

I have always wondered just where yonder is...

Something I would love to do one day...good rebus.

Am I missing something? I haven’t seen an answer to this one yet. But frequenters of this forum seem (to me at times), to be masters of the cryptic answer.

Here is how I have progressed so far.

To
Gold
Rush (Jennifer)

Is nobody else trying this one? None that I have discovered.

Firstly, we have never had a gold rush in the Canadian Rockies of which I am aware. We don’t have any rain forests in the Canadian Rockies of which I am aware.

Well done, @Canuck

It’s all there. Just a couple of small amendments.

I think we were waiting for you on this one. 😁

yes, my response was very cryptic as I didn't want to give it away: "Something I would love to do one day..."

👍👍

You were aware of the Rocky Mountaineer Rainforest to Gold Rush tour, but I was totally unaware. But such a trip does exist!

I think the name of the trip takes a bit of license with the “rain forest” and the “gold rush” component in the title. I don’t know if Cathedral Grove on Vancouver Island with its one thousand year old trees is truly a rainforest, but it is about closest thing in Canada of which I am aware. Barkerville, the historic village in northern British Columbia is about the closest location that might have experienced a “gold rush”, but neither location is on the tour.

I can recommend it 👍.
The service on the train is first class, the views range from awesome to stupendous.
We really enjoyed the trip and would do it again.
The only downside to out trip was overnighting in Kamloops, but it was only for a few hours and not as bad as some overnights I've had here in Oz.

Yes, well played @JimInOz



According to google, Steam Willie was first shown in 1928. The same year Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin.

Work on this.

Phrase, title and author, please, when you get around to it. 😀

@Charlemagne1333 is dead on the money! Exactly! Will I ever defeat you people? It appears as though that is not possible!

When it comes to abstruse clues (the toucan), two can play that game! 😁 Dig the pun?
