Our cold is the result of artic air coming down over western parts of
Canada, so it's really your fault! *:-)

than you."


They claim because we stick out so far into the ocean that it has a moderating effect on us. It we could just keep the Gulf Stream from heading east we'd be as mild as England.

I've stated many times that I live on a peninsula..attached to a larger peninsula..that is itself attached to a bigger peninsula again. (province). Roughly 18 miles keeps us from being separated from the common continentals.
You can think of us as a bit of Paradise at the end of the road.

You shouldn't use big, obscure words like peninsula or province with
morons like FlaJim.

One of the Disney ships makes a Canadian Coastline Cruise leaving from New York with
stops at St. John and Halifax. But, almost $6000 for the two of us for only five days
seems a bit excessive. I'm thinking it would be much cheaper and about as much fun to
RV it up there. It's only about 1150 miles - two days travel time, staying off the
toll roads. Wonder if there's a ferry from St. John's to Halifax. Could be fun.

For me, sure. But I could never convince Sandy to ride on the back for 2300 miles!

To bad you can't haul your bike on back of the rv. The Cabot Trail is claimed to be one of the premier motorcycle destinations in North America

Besides, Tim, if we do our Kentucky trip I'll have done my Guzzi-ing for the summer.
