I've seen this thread, but not commented. I drove through New Scotland yesterday, but the one in New York State. I drive through it often.
I love Nova Scotia and still have family in Halifax. Cape Breton is one of our favorite places to vacation. Maybe next year...

How fortunate for all who live there. It ceased being heard in South Georgia in my parents' youth; neither had a chance to

And congrats on the new post! Our enjoyment of the games and clan activities is only possible because SOME people
step up and do the work. Thank you.

Congratulations on your appointment Nathan, and thanks for the pictures. It's nice to see all that Clanranald tartan. Most places I go, I'm the only one wearing it.
