The first person in history to use the words "In Cape Breton" and "not too bad" in the same sentence!

I don't think thats fair, depending where you are in CB



Full disclosure: I grew up in Cape Breton and you're right it blows...

I'm in Halifax and it's been a nightmare driving this winter, my car doesnt clear the packed ice on lots of the roads. I'd hate to see what the bottom of my car looks like now.

Ya we are headed there in June to visit my wife's brother. Wife refuses to go in my car so I told her we are taking two (for that very road you showed).
Gonna try to meet up with Thorpedo for a run.

You will probably never experience the joy of a virgin iced parking lot, practising figure eights and other shiny manoeuvres until you and your car perform an ice dance so elegant and graceful that you can hear snow angels cry with joy.

I was going for "poetic", this is my "sentimental":
If you have perpetual summer, you'll never experience that magical first day of spring when the snow has melted and the roads are thawed and dry for the first time in months; when you put your summer wheels back on and go joyriding.
