Girlie game for girliemen! Make it pretty. Dad wants to "go home" one last time before he dies so we are taking a driving trip up the coast to your neighborhood this summer. Thinking about bringing a small trailer boat with us for some fresh water fishing, any idea where I can get regulations and info on what kind of licence I may need, will my US, Connecticut licene do, or can I drive it at all up there? Anyway, I have never been up there, can't wait. |

Mom and dad used to spend many summers up there doing geneology, scouring the graveyards and afternoons at a little place "on the main drag" right on the water eating scallops that would "melt in your mouth". I am actually pretty excited about the trip. Dad is 90 and we get on pretty well. He was very excited when I told him I was talking to someone up there. I don't know much about the place, never been there but I am sure we will have a great time. Do you need a licence to pilot a small trailer sailor up there? |

If it is like British Columbia, tourists are exempt from the boating certificate for some period. Fishing licence will be available from lots of tackle shops. Do a google on fishing licence fees for N.S. http://sportfishing.mynovascotia.net/species.asp |

My maternal grandmother was from the Digby area. United Empire Loyalists who were run out of New York in the 1760s by that revolutionary rabble. She was a Van Buskirk. In 2005 a reunion was held and a book called 'Return to your Roots' was published. My grandmother's family in Bloomfield is hi-lighted on pages 16 and 17. My youngest sister moved down to Smith's Cove when her husband got out of the navy and bought the 'Digby County Ambulance service in the 80's & early 90s. She now has another partner in Bear River, but just sold that house and build a new one on a small lake half a dozen miles away. As for an operator card... http://www.tc.gc.ca/BoatingSafety/menu.htm I was I do have my operator card I wrote the exam at the same time as my 'Boating Course' test with the power & Sail Squadron. My 19 foot mini-cruiser sailboat with it's 6 hp outboard doesn't have to be registered. |

My 19 foot mini-cruiser sailboat with it's 6 hp outboard doesn't have to be registered.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Dad says the old family name was Amerault. She married an Englishman, Hanabal, and they moved to Boston, Gloucester, and eventually back to Maine. We are spread all along the coast. He talked of finding an Amerault Hill Rd. once in their travels, but could not remember what town. They would vacation in Peggys Cove when they were not searching old records or milling around old grave sites. I think that's acutally where he wants to visit along with Digby. We got a lot of info over the winter including a DVD of Halifax. Looks real nice. They never taught us anything about the war or the Titanic graves in school, seems a shame. |
