Leaving Saturday AM, caging it, unfortunately. It's still way better than not being there!
Having a cage in the lineup is unique. Glad that you are on the way.......to your Year 5 recognition.

Enjoy indeed! Just finished a big blueberry pancake and sausage breakfast
and preparing to head out to sea for a little mackerel hand-line fishing on a local lobster fishing boat. Bring 'em back and light up the bbq! Picture of the event to be in the pending report.

Long ride home today
I left Meat Cove at about 0630 and arrived Braintree, MA at 9PM -- 1450 km (my brain is still thinking in metric after a week, too tired to do the math for miles...).
Small group, and we picked up other riders along the way. ***GREAT TIME*** Nova Scotia is special and strikingly beautiful! Go there if you can, my Dad always wanted to, and never made it. Don't let that fate be yours.
This morning on my way out the Meat Cove Road.

A good time indeed Tom! Great weather, great people and...... the food?.........Meat Cove, the Edge of the Earth Gathering, was a splendid time with a fire at the edge and a never ending flow of conversation. The joining in of Brian and Gale from Ohio was a very welcome addition. Thanks Tom for your assistance as 'ground transport' and 'beer car'. A huge help!
"Don't let that fate be yours"....... that line is more prophetic than you know Tom.

#102452 Sometimes Hangared... But Always Aimed Out
EEE Gad's.....OH My....
.....Critical AND Cryptic used in the same five word quotation!!!!! How can this even be good? Just when I thought I had the SFR all figured out.... what... you need a "cage" each year to
haul ice n" beer & pillows?? I'm all for a car load of girls each year... long as my wife is ride'n shotgun! Well... maybe.
Can't figure out the photo.... too many tents for bikes n' people? Those blue ones back-packers?
Had I have been there you could spot "scorched" grass from a real fire also!
Very sorry I missed the "edge of the earth gathering" and your fine event (understated)

#102452 Sometimes Hangared... But Always Aimed Out
It's time will come....
....but I'm expecting something complete between "Groundhog Day" & the Vernal Equinox near mid March!
Seems to take an extended spell of fine Maritime winter n' a nip of spirits, before the report. Reflection I guess.

John,
Hope you won't be disappointed when you hear that 3 bowls isn't enough anymore.

#102452 Sometimes Hangared... But Always Aimed Out
....Uh....
.... its not the "number of bowls" a boy holds; but the "size of the bowl" ...one has on immortal display! ....now forever lore within County Guysbourgh, Larry's River NS, and the "edge of earth" fireside gathering. Yet I will say, ya have 4 bowls of that chicken soup knowing there's ham dinner ahead.???... impressive Bud'ster!

Resounding words. I need to seriously consider this for 2015. Nova Scotia has been on my radar for a few years now.

I've been there five times and have not even begun to consider it explored. I know, I know, it's only an inch on the map, but it is far larger than you can imagine.
