Aleppo Cafe in the Brewery Market has closed but alluded they will reopen in a new location.

Bedford Basin Farmers Market is now in the new building and out of the Farmer Clems tent. Though “Farmers Market” feels disingenuous since there is only one vendor.

There is clothing store on Windmill by Albro Lake, selling new casual clothes, I didn’t see a sign or name on the store.

I was musing about Costco with a bit of snark his week. Remember when you go to Costco wait till your cart is blocking the entrance before looking for your card, everybody loves that.

13. New Glasgow
29. Sydney
34. Bedford
45. Dartmouth
BDSM:
1. Mahone Bay
14. New Glasgow
