Ice boating! Now, I haven't done that since moving away from
Connecticut. That was something else, and is probably a lot more
something else these days, what with the evolution of ice boats.

Frozen in, eh?

Not Halifax. We have an ice free natural harbour that comes second only to
Sydney, Australia.
Sydney, Cape Breton is about 150 miles up the coast from here.
