After Tuesday’s trying experience with the rocks and sea monsters, Socky was a bit out of sorts.  Luckily, there was a facility nearby that had just the cure for his ills.

The Ironworks Distillery was, by happy coincidence, conveniently located just down the street from our lodgings in Lunenberg.  We were able to stop in and get a wee restorative sip for him (it doesn’t take much when you’re a sock).  So as not to be rude, we picked up a bottle or four for ourselves.  I can officially recommend the vodka, and I am nigh on heartbroken that the rum won’t be ready until November.  Should you happen to be in the area, I highly recommend stopping by.

The afternoon featured a long (twisty) drive to Baddeck and gave me plenty of time to finish Socky’s toe.  He felt that being complete would give him a much better chance of fending off any more wild life, and was quite relieved.
