My HMT road trip! *completed* -pics
 
1 week from today (Tuesday Sept. 13th) i'm heading from Nova Scotia to Calgary. It's been talked about before but i'm actually doing it. I'm going later to buy a cheapy gps map thing at Futureshop (Best Buy), and hit the road. I'm probably going to get rediculously lost and will probably need directions.

People on my route (St.Paul area), PM me your numbers so we can hang out/fix whatever I brake on my civic. Aaron Weir, i'll be in Toronto Thursday night, PM me your number. I plan on documenting the whole trip with digital camera in hand and posting the results when I get to Calgary, I want to see these famous NE burnouts. :-*

I'll be back to NS to visit, but Calgary will be my new home.


Stevemode, you seem to be the main of the town. I have no idea how i'm gonna get there yet, but i'll make it. This is gonna be a fun trip (or a shitty one if I brake something on the civic).

So far i've noticed way more done up cars in Toronto than Montreal. Also, there's a bunch of actors/actresses in town for some film festival. Club down the street had 5 Ferrari's parked out front.
