HELIS ON ICE 5
Feb 14th 2015

Hey folks

We are back at my cottage for 2015. Year #5 for Helis on Ice.

Due to popular demand we’re going to try mixing a few planes in again this year.  So if your wings don’t rotate you may want to put skis were the wheels normally go.

Christie is planning on pulled pork and Chili again and we’ll be sure to have some warm cider on and a bonfire going.

Starts anytime – goes to whenever. If you are coming a distance let me know and we’ll find you a place to bunk down.

Once we get a little closer to the date we’ll make the call on weather and Ice conditions. Event Date is planned for Feb 14 (Saturday) with a backup of the 15th (Sunday) – worst case we go to the next weekend.

Directions

From the Valley

Take the number 12 Hwy to New Ross
Turn right at New Ross (Road to the Forties)
Go 17.4 Km
Turn Left ( sign says Parkdale and New Germany)
Go 9.5 Km
Turn left on to Killdog Road (Big Blue sign by Church)
About 0.8 Km - turn left onto Coveview road (only left on Killdog)
We are the second from last driveway in the Cul-du-sac - Can’t miss the big rock!

From Halifax or Yarmouth

Take the 103 Hwy to exit 11  (Blockhouse/Mahone bay exit)
Turn Inland toward Cornwall (away from Mahone Bay)

Turn right on to Killdog Road (Big Blue sign by Church)

We are the second from last driveway in the Cul-du-sac – Can’t miss the big rock!

Moving event to Saturday the 21st - snow date is the 22nd apparently we may get a bit of snow this coming Sunday ( and Monday  :) )

HI Folks
Rescheduling to the 28th. I was out there today and the snow varies from 2-4 feet deep and no crust to walk on. You basically sink up to your waist anywhere you walk.
This Sunday is calling for rain and hopefully a following freeze will provide a place to walk, a runway, and some chance of getting across the cove to recover a downed AC

I really hate Posting this



The Flu has arrived at our house and I have pneumonia. We are leaving on
vacation on Monday for two weeks and I am under very strict orders to relax,
take meds and stay indoors.



Sorry Folks - it just was not meant to be this year.

Get well Jeremy and enjoy your vacation!  That's what's important.
