Take the Long Way Home

I spent Sunday afternoon in Quispamsis lounging by the pool. A warm sunny day in Saint John tastes a little bit sweeter because it is a slightly rarer fruit then a sunny day in Freddy Beach; although current trends haven't graced either town with a whole lotta sun.

After dinner we decided to take advantage of the weather and take the scenic route over the Kinston Peninsula, across the river via ferry to Westfield, and up the river road to Fredericton to Gagetown. The drive across the Peninsula was a little longer then we expected and the throngs of weekenders heading back to the Big Smoke led to a 3 sailing wait at the Crystal Beach ferry. I did manage to get a shot of the sunset from the ferry but we decided to forego the river road in favour of the highway in the interest of time. As it was we turned the one hour rip from SJ home into at two and a half hour trip. Next time we'll leave a little earlier and make that drive though; from Grand Bay-Westfield to Gagetown along the river road is one of my favourite drives in the province. Besides, it's summer, take the long way home.

Pace out.

Simon, Is that the "royal we" in your latest post?! I think not and the other half of "we" being "she" might be justifiably upset that she remains anonymous in your blog.

You best rectify that! Rectify?!! - that's sounds painful...as in the old line- "Rectum?!Damn near killed'im!"

Erin is a wonderful young woman and it is time you introduced her to your bloggies! da
