Visit to PEI and New Glasgow, NS








This is Stan and Adrian MacDonald from O'Leary, PEI. Sydney went to University with Stan and they have remained good friends over the years. We had a wonderful visit at their store in O'Leary (Adrian is now carrying scrapbooking supplies and yarn) as well as over 100 beautiful quilts--mostly made by the locals. Stan has the drug store upstairs in their building, and the Thursday evening before we arrived they had a breakin at about 1:00 a.m. There was a road block and a high speed chase and the robbers were caught! One of the robbers ended up with a broken back and was taken to the Moncton hospital. Stan and Adrian met us at the Rodd Inn for a late supper when Adrian got off work and they joined us Sat. morning for breakfast before we caught the ferry to Caribou, NS.

















This is my Mom "Queenie" and my sister Christena. Syd and I stayed with Mom on Sat. evening and then went to Christena and David's for breakfast Sun. morning before heading out for the car show in Bible Hill, NS.

This is Joseph, Christena and David's 8 month old Grandson who was happy to entertain us while David was cooking us a wonderful breakfast!














We ran into a couple of friends from St. George (Cathy & Royden) at the car show and Syd found a few parts at the flea market for our friend Clifford. The number of cars was way down, I'm sure because of the weather. We crammed a lot into the 3 days, but all in all it was good to see everyone and we had a good weekend!
