Happy New Year

Well, here we go!  Another new year.  We closed down Mag Pyes yesterday after breakfast service.  It was kind of an odd feeling.  Even though we know that we will re-open in April, you feel a sense of abandonment.  After being at Mag Pyes every day since July 1st, now we have a couple of month off to re-charge and make plans for the up coming season.  We are excited about some menu changes, including adding some salads and hot entres.

Last night we had some friends and family over for a New Years Eve dinner.  We had a special guest join us, Fred Ells.  He stays on-board his boat at the Digby Wharf.  We befriended Fred when he started coming to Mag Pyes of his breakfast.  We got talking about his service during WWII and some of his other seafaring stories.  Fred will be 90 years young in April.  We really enjoy his company, and we were very pleased that he decided to join us for the eveing meal.  I think that is is great to be in the business that we are in.  We get to meet so many people from all walks of life.  So, I feel very lucky to meet someone like Fred and have him share his stories with us.

The next couple of days will be busy, as we prepare for our maiden voyage in the RV to Florida.
