@Mee We use to travel to N.B. through the US. Love driving Route #2 from Burlington VT to New Hampshire then into Maine. Nice leisurely drive with lots of quaint small towns along the way. We stopped using that route when the Canadian dollar slide to 70 cents to the US dollar

Not sure on the timing for lowering blood pressure Linda but I do know you're still in early days of your quit so keep at it. People tend to start getting wear of the constant battles with cravings and just always being on their toes 24/7 but trust me, it's worth the effort! It won't be long until things really start easing up and you'll get a little more breathing room. Do focus on benefits you are starting to see - that helps lift your spirits. Money saved, taste and smell improvements and I'm sure there's more. Remember the reasons you quit for. They're still important. Keep moving forward Linda!

@Mee I thought it might be nice to post up travels as we might take them. I find it interesting to see other places I don't know about and it can, as you said, give you some ideas on places you might like to go to. Let me know if you do head for the East Coast of Canada sometime. I can give you some info. on New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. Haven't travelled Nova Scotia or Newfoundland much but they've both got some great spots to see as well.

Thought it might be interesting to some to share our travel experiences so that others get an idea of places they've never been to or in some cases never even heard of. I'm in New Brunswick Canada at the moment dealing with some family issues. Today the wife & I decided to have a break and take a short trip up the coast to a place called St. Martins which is located on the Bay of Fundy coastline. Here's some information on St. Martins & why people visit this place. https://stmartinscanada.com/local-attractions/tidal-harbour/ The Bay of Fundy is known for having the greatest tidal differential in the world ( and the coldest water ). Difference between high & low tide averages around 28 feet, as opposed to the world average of 3 feet, and has been recorded as being up to 60 ft. in places under the right atmospheric conditions! In addition to all this, it's a picturesque little town spotted with old wooden covered bridges and it is home to a series of sea caves which are a Unesco World Heritage site. The caves are only accessible at low tide. This is low tide in the harbour at St, Martins village. Low tide at St. Martins beach which is where the sea caves are located. The water line at low tide is several hundred feet down the beach. I marked the high tide water line with a red marker to show the difference between tides. As a scale reference, there's a 6 foot person standing at the water line upper left of this photo. You can barely make them out. Unfortunately, the angle of the sun was such it did not allow for decent photos of the caves which are located on the left side of St. Martins beach. As you can see, the beach is filled with rocks (not much sand). These rocks are both unique and recognizable from any other rock I have ever seen. Due to the massive tidal forces these rocks are exposed to twice daily, they are all rounded and worn smooth. In addition to this, many have a pock-mark appearance to them due to repeated battering against other rocks on the beach. And of course, like any other tourist place, St. Martins has it's share of eateries from formal to road-side shacks. Most only open from May- early Oct. yearly because that's high season for tourism. The only place open on our visit in November was this ice cream parlor along the road leading into town. And NO, I didn't buy a Camo Hoodie

We all were anxious about quitting before we started but once you commit to quit, that anxious feeling will disappear because you will be focused on the early days of your quit. We'll help you through and answer any questions you may have. There's also a wealth of information here so have a look around at the pinned posts top of a number of pages and there's a video library that addresses almost every aspect of quitting!

Welcome to the quit train activeonly! You'll find a lot of support and information here that will help you on your quit journey. Everyone here is a nicotine addict, like yourself.

Nice Job Jswiss!

Nice day here on the East Coast of Canada! Sunny & warm, at least for this time of year, so we took a drive down to my cousin's place. He owns a seafood wholesaling company. We grabbed us a few lobster fresh off the boat this morning and cooked those tasty little shellfish up for our meal this evening. You can't beat the taste of fresh from the ocean Atlantic lobster, cooked same day. They just don't travel well so we can't eat them at home any more. The taste is just never the same as fresh.
