Sorry, from Ottawa here :pI know! but you don't have to be sorry.

Kitchener/Waterloo here, and I'm not sorry :)

Once or twice a year an honorary Maritimer going over for business or pleasure.

I'm a Nova Scotia Linux user, I have 3 machines, one with OpenSuse, one with Ubuntu and one with Debian. I also use an Android mobile phone.

I also have a blog that follows Linux and open source software use in the maritimes.

I should go there sometimes, just to relax my mind and to feel the human warmth.

Until you realize that Newfoundland (not sure about the other maritime provinces) has rain and fog every day and you can't see across the road on a hot (5 degrees) summer's day.

Well I'm sure I saw a few people from Ottawa, it's relatively close if I remember right.

It's close-ish just over an hour or so drive, depending on what route you use :D

That's awesome! Brockville is really a very nice place, it's so full of trees and green things! I always feel like I am walking around in a city surrounded by a forrest :D
