Thought of the day.

Back from a little trip to Tracadie [IMG2=JSON]{"alt":"Image may contain: text","data-align":"none","data-size":"full","src":"https:\/\/scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net\/v\/t1.0-9\/31250509_10156659820469384_8160850445548388352_n.jpg?_nc_cat=0&oh=8b7e09ee607faace745eee16147bf508&oe=5B64EECE"}[/IMG2]
 
Was quoting a job today, guy seen maritime mustang sticker on my truck and says your into Mustangs :)
You might like this and takes me to garage, opens door.
1983 Svo Mustang, original owner, early build, so early they added the quad shocks after production
He changed exhaust but has the original stuff and documentation.
Beautiful car, sorry did not get pics
 
Seemed like a day for Camaros to come out of storage today. Must have seen a dozen around Charlottetown today. Seemed to outnumber Mustangs 3:1 today!
 
Calling it Vette day today. 3 out this morning on the 15 min drive to work this am. Finally seeing sweepers out on the streets, so with tomorrow's forecasted rain things should be cleaning up soon. Lots of potholes still to get filled. Hoping most of that gets done in the next week. Getting the car out of storage next Wednesday and hope to give it a good stretch before the spring run to Oxford!
 
Well two days of awesome weather with yesterday being 22 and previous one 17 so snow has gone down a lot. Now found out that it is official the pool is going to pool heaven, it ripped in two on the back side and the fence is also wrecked on three panels. Insurance only covers a quarter of the damages minus the deductible so probably not worth claiming. Ah well worse things in life I suppose...lol
On bright side Stang coming out on the 8th and strait to the shop to fix roof issue, all parts are in at a nice $2800.00 bill plus work to be done so expensive Spring up north and not to mention that Supreme Court ruled that we are not allowed to cross cheap beer over from Quebec............darn !!! lol
 
As far as I know Roger, You are allowed to cross border with a case of 12, You can check with your local RCMP to double check. If that is the case, a 5 minute drive for you, there shouldn't be anything preventing you from making 2 trips a week in summertime. For me, I'm glad that NB Liquor dropped the price on a 24 by $7.00. Works out to $1.50 a beer instead of $2.00 (before price drop). Now it is cheaper in NB than NS.
 
Yep you are correct Fred, 12 is the limit. The deals though are usually on larger cases so sometimes not worth crossing over just for 12.
But there is a bigger picture to the whole issue and to tell you the truth at times it is not understood by many. Province does not keep in mind that the Reserve across the river pours in millions of dollars into our province each year buying goods, groceries and trucks, trucks, trucks..........and a few cars here and there. In return they make dollars selling loads of beer. The last time that the general public got stopped and fined for importing beer during a police operation let me tell you that Monday morning the mayor's office was full of beer store owners with the Reserve Chief and Council members calling for the mayor to talk with the Mounties and settle things down. It is not the regular Joe coming across with a few cases of beer that is the problem here but it is the ones who own clubs and restaurants that are trucking loads of it and selling illegally, now that is not right and the rest of us end up paying the price (full price, lol)
 
I'm liking Newfoundlands limit compared to ours.

New Brunswick
  • Up to one bottle of spirits;
  • Up to one bottle of wine; and
  • 12 pints of beer.
Newfoundland and Labrador
  • Up to 40 ounces or 1.14 litres of spirits;
  • Up to 40 ounces or 1.14 litres of wine; and
  • Two dozen bottles or cans or nine litres of beer.
But if you are 5 minutes away like Roger, no problem, a Dozen at a time as many times a week as necessary.


:FordSmile
 
Is this per person or vehicle? If per person just bring a bus full of neighbours with you...LOL
