Slim,
About 10 years ago, I traversed that area. May have stayed in your
gig city. If you can, St. John is the closest water. It has the reversing
falls. That big water is the famous Bay of Fundy. The normal tide change
there is 25 feet. Just like what hit Ben's Lake Pontchartrain. If you go
east you can see the famous magnetic hill in Moncton. That is where you
drive on the street to the bottom of hill, put your car in neutral and let
the magnetic hill pull you up. But they do speak a lot of French in that
area. Better get studying. Oh, BTW, the speed limits are in kilometers.

Ed,
I just found out today that I'm going to New Brunswick, not Nova Scotia.
The Agent told me Sweetwater, NS but Sweetwater is the name of the club.
It's in the town of Fredericton, NB. Agents!
It's on the St. John River a couple hours northwest of the city of St. John.
Too bad I won't be on the coast although if time permits I'll try to take a
day trip to St. John. No, I speak no French.
