Driving in Nova Scotia

[Doug Drown]

I'll bet a lot of people miss the ferry.   The Cat left port from Bar Harbor 
in March for points unknown.   I believe it's been sold.  Sad.  I understand 
the loss has been a huge blow to Yarmouth's local economy.   Ferry service 
had operated between the two communities for nearly sixty years.

The ferry from Saint John to Digby is still running, but it isn't 
particularly advantageous to anyone heading toward the east side of Nova 
Scotia.

>>This drive is LONG

You said it --- it's 600 miles to Sydney from central Maine.  Beautiful 
drive, but it's a long haul.

Interesting that WEEI and WWZN have the strongest daytime signals in that 
area.  We can pick them up decently up here near Blue Hill, but WBZ comes in 
like it's next door.   -Doug
