our last day in New Brunswick

Joe still working on cleaning and greasing the fittings of salt
with help from Dave and Mary Lou, our home for the past 3 months is all winterized and cleaned and wrapped for the winter
it was hard to tie the tarp down as we only had 5 jack stands holding her up ... not like our cradle back in Ontario .. we could tie the tarp to that
one last trip with Joe's tools to the storage unit ... we had the manager  set the unit thermostat , so they can flip the switch the middle of November so the unit will be 50 to 55 degrees in the winter ... Genevieve to the left and Modaki on right .. it is great to be able to share the unit with John and Moira Coull
pictures to do not show what it really looks like,  at low tide a small creek only with a trickle of water flowing, the rest is mud
this is interesting, in 1937 workers discovered the skeleton of an almost perfectly preserved mastodon (prehistoric elephant) near Hillsborough on the Petitcodiac River, New Brunswick.  Believed  to be over 37,000 years old.
