Speeder...

...so somebody is $2400 poorer this weekend! A young man from Ydot was caught speeding on the Brooklyn Road and was given the biggest fine ever given for speeding. He was going 115 km/h in a 60 km/h zone. (http://thechronicleherald.ca/NovaScotia/1206702.html)

I will just note, that this is exactly the same location I was caught speeding a while back. I wasn't going that fast, but I was still speeding. It's an area where there is an overpass so when you're driving along, you feel like you should be driving faster than the rural speeds.....it kinda feels like you're on the highway. I'm not excusing this man for going that fast cause let's face it, it was rather overboard but I can see how someone would drive faster than 60 km/h. My fine was nearly $300 and I was complaining...can't imagine $2400, losing your licence for a while and having it plastered all over the news. I doubt this guy will speed again! Just glad no one was hurt.

October 11th...

...so today is a day i'll never forget. 13 years ago a dear friend of mine was killed in a car accident. Every year on this day it's like Mother Nature is trying to help us remember cause it's always cool and crisp with not a lick of wind and the sun shines bright. You'll never be forgotten Ashley xo

"Raj"...

...so last week I went to Hdot for meetings and the night before we had a social function at the Lower Deck. Miss Hair and myself got a table near the band and were singing away minding our own business. I went to the washroom and when I returned I found Miss Hair talking to a older version of "Raj" from the "Big Bang Theory". I was laughing before I even reached the table and she's trying to keep a straight face. Here's a description of what I saw....he was definitely waiting for a flood in those pants! They were hiked up part way up his torso, accented with a very large belt buckle. Tucked in these hideous pants was a navy, velvet....yes I said velvet...collard shirt....and here's the kicker....there were pictured of horses jumping fences all the way around his gut like a cheesy 70's border!! HAHAHAHAHA....i was nooooo good. ANyways, he tried to tell me he was a Flight Engineer and he travelled all over the place. I took that to mean he was a flight attendant cause the last time I checked, you can't fix the outside of a plane while it's in the air so chances are he embellished a little. This gave me the idea to do the same so Miss Hair and I became Doctors! Why not? He went on and on about how his nephew needed a knee surgery but had to go to the states so I proceeded to explain how simple this type of procedure is...I just whipped out my Grey's Anatomy knowledge and I was on fire! "It's a vertical incision, on the left of the knee.." Blah Blah Blah... hahahaha...it was one of those "had to be there" moments.

Lobsters...

...so there's a presentation regarding lobster fishery on Oct 13th in Ydot. Might want to go have a listen cause it might be very insightful as to what to expect in the coming Lobster Season. http://www.cjls.com/news.php?ID=1258

Wheeling...

...so I went wheeling with a gang of girls yesterday. I borrowed my dad's wheeler and he wanted to make sure I wouldn't have any problems so he wrote out instructions on how to use it. "Step 1: Get on wheeler facing forward. Step 2: put right foot on brake and turn key to ON" ...and so on. It was hilarious cause apparently he thinks that I lack common sense. Of course the first pick of the day is me, sitting backwards on the wheeling with my arms up in the air wondering how to start it! I was thankful that he did do that for me though...I did feel better knowing I had a idiot proof guide on how to operate this machine!

The day went on without any problems at all. We even stopped for a coffee break along the route cause my passenger had brought a little burner, water, coffee, cups and milk. It was a gorgeous day - crisp fall day and the trail was awesome and smooth. We ate lunch at PD in Meteghan then continued all the way to Weymouth and back.
