My wife, Carol, and I are getting ready to hit the road again.

We will be leaving Saturday morning (June 28, 2014) on our way to St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada. We have to drive a little over 2,200 miles to reach the ferry point in North Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada. The ferry departs at 5 PM on July 2, 2014 and takes all night to complete the crossing, pulling in to port in Argentia (NOT ARGENTINA), Newfoundland about 9 AM the next morning. Then just another 80 miles to our ultimate destination.

We're going up to visit Carol's family who live in the St. John's area. We'll stay about three weeks, returning in late July.

I'll try to keep this updated as we travel.

Going out Rt9 through Maine to get to Canada, correct?  If so, you, quite literally, will be driving right past our house.  You're both welcome to make a pit-stop if you'd like. :)  (or maybe you're taking the ferry out of Portland?)  That sounds like a great trip!  And happy birthday, btw! ;D

JohnM,

Yes, we'll be on Rt 9. I'm not sure how we will be for time that day but it would be good to stop in for a short visit...

I'll PM you when we're a little closer and maybe we can work it out.

Happy Birthday!

Don't try to smuggle any grits into Maine.  I hear that it could result in jail time  ;D.
