I’ve been staying with my good friends Myron & Nancy Yates the last few days, but the big day has arrived and I’m about depart. In this shot, I’m gazing at the distant horizon, seeing what’s ahead. I suppose this habit comes from my naval background. I spent 3 years in the Sea Cadets, rising to the rank of Petty Officer 1st Class!
Spent Sunday night at the Comfort Inn Rivière du Loup. I was storm stayed at this motel on Dec 31, 1999. That’s right, I welcomed the New Millenium here, with deppaneur wine and a pizza.

I drove 900 K’s today and the last half was just nasty! Severe blowing snow near Montreal and wicked freezing rain between there and Cobourg. Saw several accidents & cars off the road.
Arrived in Cobourg at 6:30 pm. Here’s a funny thing: I have a CD, Radiohead’s “Kid A”, stuck in my car’s CD player so it’s the only one I ever hear. I know all the lyrics. Anyway, I turned it on as I was pulling into Cobourg, and playing was the song “How to Disappear” with the refrain “This isn’t happening, this isn’t happening, I’m not here, I’m not here….”
Actually, for the next week or so (until my stuff arrives), I’ll be staying at the Comfort Inn in Port Hope, less than 10 k’s away. . They gave me a nice ‘complementary upgrade’.

1st view of my new place! I don’t get to see the inside until I take possession on Thursday.
