I took the Heart and Stroke Foundation's Walkabout Challenge, and I lost to the letter carriers of Canada Post, so the deal was if I lost I had to deliver the mail. I did, and it was so hot you could fry and egg on the sidewalk, even cats were wearing shoes! Here are some picks, and help your letter carrier out by keeping the walk ways clear of stuff in summer and snow in the winter. And if you have a dog friendly or not keep him leashed up so he can't get to the mail box. For some reason dogs don't like letter carriers. Thanks to the whole crew at the Kentville Depot, you guys really made this fun!
This is the sorting area at Canada Post Kentville, and let me tell you they have quite a job there!
This is me and Laurie Heinz, he walks the longest route at the Kentville Depot, 12 km everyday 5 days a week.
Yes there is even more sorting rooms!
This is me all gear up and ready to go, water, defibrillator, 911 on my phone, here we go!
This is Jeanie and the big boss from Canada Post
This is me after my route was done, and I didn't even do the whole thing! These letter carriers are really unsung heroes, they are out in this heat and in the cold winter. I couldn't do this everyday!
When I got there Laurie was happy to hear that I would be carrying his mail bag today!Laurie says I didn't do too bad, and I have it on video too!
This was my second time out to Kentville Mazda, and this time the Owner Mike Landry was there to partake in the fun with us. Last time I was there you could throw a pie in my face, this time it was water balloons. One the sales guys Ronnie asked me why I just don't buy and gun and get it over with! LOL! Every time we have so much fun!

The set up for the Water Balloon Extravaganza
I don't know if you can see, but Mike Landry really put me in charge at Kentville Mazda. My name is taped over his on his office door!
It was so hot getting cold water balloons thrown at us wasn't so bad!
I didn't know how much water I would be facing so I brought my swim gear!
That's not a white spot on the picture by my neck, it's a water balloon about to hit me in the head!
People had no mercy for me, this lady heard on the radio that anyone could stop in and throw water balloons at me and she took advantage! Look at the wind up, I'm in trouble!
This car was dirty, so they parked it behind me in case anyone missed it would get clean!
Mike Landry had to throw a couple at me before he turned the price cutting power over to me!
The guys at Kentville Mazda are always so nice.
Mike had so much fun, and we sold more than we thought! That's why it's always fun to shop at Kentville Mazda.
It didn't matter how big they were, everyone thought it was funny to throw water balloons at the radio guy!Jeff Atwell plays with a future customer
This lady was more than happy to get me all wet!
Londo Smith get whacked with a balloon thrown by Jeff.
I'll be at the Annapolis Valley Ex all this week in Lawrencetown, so if you don't get to go, you can see all the fun right here!
