We’ve been pretty faithful to the Econo Lodge Comfort Inn in Bedford whenever we go up to Halifax. It’s in a good location given the places that we want to go, about 10 minutes from all 3 of our destinations. But I think next time we go up we’re going to try the [...]

Looks like the remnants of a hurricane are headed our way but most likely will be downgraded to just a ‘bad fall storm’ with winds gusting up to 100 km/h starting tomorrow afternoon. Lots of rain and possible thundershowers as well. That sucks, it looks like we’ll have to cancel our trip if that’s the [...]
