New Brunswick Rock

The Saint John Imperial Theatre and Moncton Capitol Theatre were two more stellar shows in beautiful settings with those rocking fans. Hard to top, but it's on to Nova Scotia and our first trip ( really? ) to Windsor, The Home of Hockey, and Truro, The Home of Hookey ( according to my trailer park heroes, Hip Club Groove ). Come say hello.
  And we haven't forgotten our final east coast gig of the year on Wednesday, Glace Bay! at the, also gorgeous, Savoy Theatre. All shows being ably opened by our pal and moral compass, Mo Kenney!Photo: Imperial Theatre, Saint John

Newfoundland Labrador and fish cakes

Breakfast in Gander was the fish cakes. Just like yesterday in Bonavista was the fishcakes. Only these fish cakes were a little different; fluffier, less compact, little more h'onion. Doesn't matter, the fish cakes in Newfoundland and Labrador are what fish cakes are all about.They're like Roy Orbison songs, they are awesome everywhere.
 One small downer has been the scarcity of caribou meat , but the hunts been off for a couple years so that makes sense. We 're still hopeful of some moose.Tonight, however, is Justin's mom's place in Grand Falls, and there, awaits us, is the full jiggs dinner. Can't wait. The show might get a little bluesy for the first while.

 St. John's, Lab City, Goose Bay, Bonavista,Gander; it's all been the tour I was looking forward to.
 You're next, Grand Falls, Cornerbrook, Stephenville, Clarenville!

Newfoundland and Labrador

Tonight, Hurricane Sandy blows through the trees still full with the colours of a classic autumn. Somewhere, off Cape Hatteras, The Bounty settles in her own sandy grave, there with Blackbeard's ghost. But we --safe and snug?-- look to Newfoundland and Labrador, to old friends, and our next rocking road trip. Keep yer heads down and your spirits up!
