A good project for someone

 A friend just sent me this.   If I didn’t have that MG, this would be my current project.

 YAY!!! The province of New Brunswick has announced an incentive plan for purchases of electric vehicles. Up to $5000, plus up to $5000 federally, plus 50% towards home recharging station!

I’ll be purchasing in 2022. The new battery technology should be pretty common across all makes by then. Keeping an eye on what will be available. Very excited!

UPDATE: Picking up on what Larry said in his recent comment, read this very interesting CBC article that explains how EVs could provide solutions during power outages in storms and much more:

A request for research participants

"UNB needs more people to sign up for this study. If you are 65 and older, please consider taking part. I did my first session on Tuesday. It was interesting, took about 90 minutes, and the testers were charming. The second session is done in your own home."

FABAC Tour to South West NB

     This was the tour not to miss and the 8 cars that participated were rewarded with a wonderful day of fantastic weather, good roads, great scenery and of course to top it off a wonderful meal with of course a fantastic group of people. Once again we traveled on roads that I personally have never seen that were mostly in terrific condition—great for sports cars!

     We hit spots like Oak Bay, Bonnie River and the Falls on Bonnie River, to name just a few. I'm hoping others who participated have photos to share.

    All this brought to us by John D. (aka The Tour Meister) who deserves a big pat on the back for the research and effort he put into this. Thanks, John. Good stuff!

A beautiful day for a drive!

 This is the one you've been waiting for. See you at Harvey Station between 9:30 and 10:00. 

Cheers

Keep checking here for Sunday Monday Run updates

I contacted Birch Grove restaurant—they have five tables outside and are going to reserve for eight people inside. I am recommending that we stay outside and, if possible, you may want to take your own chair.

We are keeping an eye on the weather, so you should keep an eye on this site for updates, postponements or cancellations.

Weather for Sunday looks increasingly dismal. Check here by supper-time Saturday for another update.

LATEST UPDATE
John and I have been keeping an eye on the weather for the past week. We had earmarked Monday and Thursday as holding some promise for decent weather. Circle Monday for the possibility of that being the most likely choice for now. ALWAYS check here before heading out.
