We'll be there just one day on October 22. We chose the "Heart of the Island" tour. From their website "Ciad Mile Failte - a hundred thousand welcomes await you! Nova Scotia is Latin for New Scotland and nowhere is this more evident than on Cape Breton Island. This tour takes you to the heart of the island. As your tour progresses, you'll stop at the center of Cape Breton Island, Hectors' Point, Iona and visit the Nova Scotia Highland Village, a 50 acre historical site overlooking the Bras d'Or Lakes. " It is a 3 1/2 hour tour which gives us a half day to look around on our own.

Thanks! Coming from a pro, that's a compliment. Except it really should go to LB_3, whose drone skill is improving.

NotStock is a professional auto photographer (think show cars, hot rods, and magazine covers) so he works with all the best custom shops in the country. The guys that painted his van are Inovative Autoworks. He didn’t document much of the paint job here but it’s well covered on his instagram.
Here is one of his many Instagram pics:

We made it back to Camp Interblog, our land on the far eastern side of Cape Breton Island where I put in a road and parking pad for our Interstate last year. This is a test upload. My 3G internet is so slow that I cannot even measure it.
Our dog is exhausted in this pic because she and I had overnighted at the nearest airfield the night before with our guest, so that the guest could start a red eye flight sequence back to Houston in the wee hours. They have had issues with large wildlife getting onto the active runway in the past, and so I suspect that they installed automated scare equipment, because something that sounded like air cannons went off ALL NIGHT. Nobody got much sleep.

Looks like time for some overdue R&R, IB.
May the rest of your trip be pleasure, only.
