You painted Peggy's Cove well, Bob.

Enjoyed the listen. Especially like the 3rd verse:

"I think I saw an angel climbing on the rocks
But I looked again and she was gone in the mist beneath the docks
I don't know what time it is or where the seasons go
But I'm ageless as the weathered wood here in Peggy's Cove"

Awesome!!

I want to go there right now.

I am starting to make some plans to visit Canada on an extended 30 year Visa, the way things are looking over here right now.

If I tell people in the Canadian government I have Band in a Box Audiophile 2016 will they let me come in and stay, and hook me up with a cool little cottage on a lake near Toronto where I can just hang out on the Chesterfield and write songs all day?

If anyone knows how to apply for a Canadian grant like that please let me know.

Bob,
A fine tribute to that lovely,atmospheric place, ... you captured the feeling very well and the viola solo is a good fit.
Most enjoyable!

Yes this part of the lyric was exceptional, as most of your lyrics are Bob.

Hello Bob,

A beautiful song, very atmospheric. We were looking for the cello, which We didn't see in the realtracks list...

Good work!

Beautiful song Bob and a beautiful place to sing about. Loved the jangly tone of the guitar as well.
