Default BTW, Great Day on the Bay

October has been stunning so far. Just about perfect with temperatures in
the high 60's....better than summer unless you want to swim in the ocean.
Air is clear as a bell...none of that summer haze.
see http://www.celtic-colours.com/default.html
Seems to be lots of Irish and French Acadian music mixed in with the
Scottish.
This time of year you get double value for your money...the usual fall
foliage sightseeing and the music festival.

I've been trying to convince my wife that a summer trip to your area
would be delightful, but she's a southern belle, and thinks if it isn't
97F in July and August, with matching humidity, there's something wrong.
I've almost got her convinced about a trip to the Pacific NW, with tales
of fine, soft days (she's of Irish ancestry), but she's leery of the
temps there, too.

Forgot to mention... in today's local paper a small article on Conde Nast
Traveler magazine naming Cape Breton Island as the second best island in
North America...after Vancouver Island.
Take that NOYB!

I'm not sure what "Tak that NOYB" means, but I suppose you mean to rub my
face in the fact that Florida didn't have an island that was rated the "most
beautiful island in the World". Is that it?


I've been to a lot of islands that are more beautiful than any island found
in Florida (Aruba, Whidbey Island, WA; the Hawaiian islands; etc). I could
have chosen to open a practice and live near any of 'em. But it was the
combination of 300 sunny days per year, the warm sub-tropical climate, and
the beautiful sandy beaches and islands that drew me to Florida. Also, I
wanted to be able to boat 356 days each year.

When my brother lived in Seattle, I always commented that if I could move
Seattle's beauty to Arizona's climate, then that'd be the place that I live.
Since that place doesn't exist, Florida provided a happy medium.

That's about it.
I believe you 'trash talked' Canada a couple of times in here. Just thought
I'd open your mind a bit.

With Snowbird season fast approaching, you're either very brave or very
foolish.
I can see your National Enquirer headline...

Everyone of the Canadians that I have as patients are very nice people.
Everyone of the Canadians that come down here during the winter months for
prolonged stays are also very nice people. The ones that stay up in Canada,
bitch about the arrogance of Americans, didn't support us in Iraq, and
recently voted to legalize marijuana and same-sex marriages, are the ones
that *need* "bagging on". Are you a snowbird, Don...or are you one of the
anti-American blow-hards?
