Go, Stay, or Return to Michigan


View Larger Map

Sunday October 4, 2009: Stuck here in Antigonish, Nova Scotia in a campground about 35 miles west of Cape Breton Island and the Cabot Trail. Pouring rain all day and I'm doing laundry. Received news of Jerry's death and I'm waiting for funeral details before deciding whether to continue on or abort and return to Jackson. Whether or not I could even make the 1,600 miles home in time will depend on the funeral schedule. Turning back would be dissappointing, but with continued rain forecast for three of the next four days, it wouldn't be that difficult since I'm not getting the weather to enjoy the Cabot Trail or take the photographs I came for in the first place.  Time will tell.

  1. Mack, I finally got to my e-mail on this new comtraption and I have viewed the photos. Some great photos!! Let us know out here in radio land if you went back for the funeral or if you continued in the rain. Remember this is supposed to be a vacation, so if it isn't fun because of all the rain it is still your trip. So by golly go home if you want to. Sister B
