It is a good 6 hour Jump non stop if you stop for something to eat it would take longer driving, from Halifax and following the speed limit all the way.

If the leaves have turned which I think is the case there are some breath taking views.

Marilyn Lovell, August 27, 2023.

I am late in noting this one marvelous life until reminded by my daughter of the courage the crew and their families.

Marilyn Lovell was my mother's ideal, assuring us all that daddies came home from space and sea.

RIP Mrs. Lovell, may your strength and stoicism live on.

Piper Laurie, the Oscar- and Emmy-nominated actor who earned distinction in films such as “Carrie” and "Children of a Lesser God" and cult status in the quirky mystery drama series "Twin Peaks," has died.

Laurie’s career spanned six decades, taking her from perky starlet roles during Hollywood’s golden era to a three-time Academy Award nominee who — despite the honors and accolades — repeatedly criticized what she saw as Hollywood's superficiality.

Still acting until late in life, Laurie died Saturday morning in Los Angeles, her manager, Marion Rosenberg, confirmed. She was 91. An exact cause of death was not given.
