November 24, 2022.

A week or so ago Suzie and I made a decision to hop on a plane and head out to Nova Scotia to visit family (Suzie’s) for a few days before the Christmas season.
We left Hamilton, Ontario on “SWOOP” yesterday and headed for Halifax N.S.
We arrived at “Hatchet Lake” NS around noon time at Suzie’s sister and Brother-in-laws place.
We plan to venture to some sites in the area over the next few days.
Pics to follow.

Cheers, Terry

Yesterday’s excursion took us to the famous tourist attraction of Peggys Cove, NS.
The last time Suzie and I were there was in 2015 on our east coast Harley adventure to Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and the Cabot Trail.
Lots of excellent additions to the venue at Peggys Cove.
Enjoy the photos.

Cheers, Terry

Yesterday we took a ride into downtown Halifax for some sight seeing and a nice lunch. The weather here has been less than perfect as Saturday the winds blew to gale force with rain. Yesterday was a nice sunny and warm day but today is back to gloomy and rain. Later this evening we fly back to Ontario. It has been a great trip visiting and catching up with family.
Enjoy the photos!

Cheers, Terry

It’s that time of year again, and sadly it was time to pack up the man cave. We backed the 370Z into its winter berth along side the Harley. On the bright side it means we are closer to heading south for the winter months.
Shared a little Christmas spirit and allowed our friend to keep his “Honda” in the Harley man cave this winter.
Here’s hoping everyone has a healthy and happy holiday season!

Cheers, Terry

It looks like everything is nestled away nice and safe. I'm sure there'll be posts closer to Christmas but just in case You and You're Good Lady have a Merry Christmas.

January 09, 2022.

First of all Happy New Year to all. Hope 2023 is good to everyone, successful and safe in your endeavors, and a healthy year ahead.
We have just completed out first week in Puerto Vallarta for our winter escape from the cold.
All is good, flight was great and without incident. Our unit we booked last winter is fantastic, and now it’s time to settle in and enjoy the warmth and sunshine.
We don’t plan on doing many excursions this winter but will update from time to time.

Cheers, Terry & Suzie

“Sticky Fingers” one of our favorite bars to frequent. Great food and service here.

What the Honda doesn't rate getting carpet squares under the tires?

It’s a “no frills” winter storage option. LOL. The Honda has a special rate. It’s called stay warm inside and stay for the winter months for “free”. Pretty nice option I would say.
Had a long chat with the Harley for acceptance. It all worked out in the end.
Besides the Honda’s tires are shot and will be replaced in the spring.

Cheers, Terry
