I live in a relatively unpopulated part of Canada ( New Brunswick ) and we are not allowed to leave the province at the present time due to Covid. I do not have a problem with that, as we have experienced very few cases. I am not a native of this province so I am taking the opportunity to tour around using the older roads (which are in surprisingly good shape), I have discovered some pretty remarkable sites, the worlds longest covered bridge, in Hartland New Bruswick; a town called Grand Falls which has water flow close to Niagra Falls volume in the spring of the year and a very lifelike statue of a guy named Ron Turcotte riding the famous racing horse Secretariat ( did I spell that right? ). I have fueled up on a First Nations reserve where the service and price was the best of anywhere I have fueled up in a long time. I have been in communities where english is rarely spoken, ( thankfully my french is a bit more than passable ); New Brunswick is the only province in Canada that is officially bilingual.

I have so much more to see and experience, doing all this this in a 914 reminds me how fortunate we all are to enjoy these wonderful cars, it always draws attention and positive comments. The teener ( once warmed up ) has performed admirably, smooth as silk on smooth blacktop, corners like a go kart, excellant fuel mileage and very comfortable even after a 600 mile day!

I have never been successful at adding pictures to my posts, I am old and not very teccccy!

Sharing my recent experiences as I have always enjoyed other peoples stories.
