Thank you to the lovely gentleman who saw me struggling with my luggage at the Halifax airport this morning and asked if he could carry something to the check in counter for me. I am home in the prairies for the Christmas but it was lovely to have a little Halifax friendliness as a lasting holiday impression. Thanks again, you saved my arms and my guitar!
