Wow @MC Stanger how the heck do I follow up after those notes.
I got out this morning for an early Tims run. Had the chance to snap a few pics.
1st pic on South Barnaby River Road off of Route 118 and 126 (aka shortcut to Moncton as some would know it.) It’s just a short drive through here, but a few twists and occasional wildlife.
Continuing out towards 126, a Train Bridge, local swimming hole that often floods every Spring. Both the North and South Barnaby Bridge roads are closed to trucks. POI, it was on this road that Allan Legere was apprehended in 1989
Onto Miramichi,
Stopped by the old Morrissy Bridge which was closed to traffic in 2008. Still used as a pedestrian crossing and a lot of “photographers” use it for photo shoots
Circle down by the Water (Ritchie Wharf). Every Thursday evening from 6 pm until dark, the Miramichi Motörhead’s and other car enthusiasts gather to show off their rides and chat (#socialdistance). From Miramichi, travel down the King George Highway from Newcastle to Douglastown. The river is now on your right and you’ll see Centennial Bridge off in the distance.
Cineplex Miramichi provide a good photo opp with the bridge in the background. Note: this picture is from a few weeks ago.
Cross the bridge and exit into Chatham, 12 Howard Street to check out Saint Michaels Basillica. Saint Michaels was dedicated in 1921 and is one (1) of the largest Church’s in Eastern New Brunswick.
Heading over to Skypark Miramichi, former CFB Chatham to view the CF-101 Voodoo on display. CFB Chatham provided support to the Voodoo Squadron from 1962 - 1984.
Leaving Skypark, follow Water Street up “the other side of the river”. It’s only a 40 minute or so run, but it keeps our beautiful, and often taken for granted Miramichi River in your sites!
Finally, arriving home just in time to clean the “other Ford” before the workweek starts!

Not much on the go for highway projects in the western zone this year.
