An EcoBoost Ford Flex Limited was one of the best modes of transportation I have ever rented. It was excellent on the long runs, carried Angela, Emily and her make-up bag across Nova Scotia in absolute comfort. The AllWheelDrive was superb considering the shitkicking we got by the weather. The heated leather seats were almost sexual in nature. I quite liked that.
The seafood was simply outstanding. So were the rabbits, deer, and free-range turkeys we devoured. Angela's brothers all live off the available resources as fishermen, trapper or hunters. Ang's oldest brother handed me a coyotes' head as a method of deterring the house-cat from attacking the christmas tree. We dragged 3 coyotes from their snares and one bobcat. That bounty money bought us the booze we needed to help the wood stove in keeping us warm at night.
Then on to Halifax to spend time with friends, GO Navy!
Also watched the 25th anniversary concert for Rock Hall Of Fame on DVD...quite good for music history buffs. Em bought me that. Nice gift.
Oh... on the way home, we left Halifax at 4 am, on to Montreal, on to Ottawa, on to London, on to Sarnia..loooong farking day and only TWO pieces of luggage lost (recovered).
A new resolve to make some marketing headway in the freaky 3D sign business for 2011.
