Drugs are bad.

Drugs are bad.

A monkey is sitting in a tree smoking a joint when a lizard walks past and looks up and says to the monkey, "Hey! What are you doing?" The Monkey says "Smoking a joint, come up and have some" So the lizard climbs up the tree and sits next to the monkey and they have a few joints.

After a while, the lizard gets the pasties and goes down to the river for a drink of water.

The lizard is so stoned that he leans too far over and falls into the river. A crocodile sees this and swims over to the lizard and helps him to the side, then asks him "What's the matter with you?" The lizard explains to the crocodile that he was sitting smoking a joint with the monkey in the tree, got too stoned, and then fell into the river while taking a drink.

The crocodile decides that he has to check this out and walks into the jungle, finds the tree where the monkey is hauling on his bong and he looks up and says "HEY YOU"

The Monkey looks down and says "Fuuuuuuuuuck dude.... how much water did you drink?"

Butcher Hill Falls

Butcher Hill Falls

Continue east on 289 to Middle Stewiacke, and turn right to South Branch. Follow road through South Branch and turn right onto unpaved Higgins Mill Road. The falls are deep in the ravine on the right between the first and the second houses on that road. There is a steep trail (use extreme caution - ropes are an asset) located not far from the MTT signpost, roughly 300 feet before the house on right. The falls are on private property - keep this in mind! The falls consists of a spectacular 50 foot vertical drop into a pool which then flows over a rock slope.

Burnside Falls

Go on the 289 Eastwards to Upper Stewiacke, then left onto Pembroke Road (dirt road - marked by sign to "Burnside"). Follow road through Pembroke to Burnside, keeping right to Upper Burnside. Look for "Burnside Community Park" right before bridge. A steep stairway (not for those afraid of wooden rollercoasters) leads down into the ravine.

Directions to New France & Balancing Rock

To visit New France in the J.D. Irving Woodlands near Weymouth, Nova Scotia, take Exit 27 or Exit 28 off Highway 101. At the flashing amber light in Weymouth, take Route 340 south. Travel 7 km., then turn east on the Langford Road. Continue 5.5 km until Southville Corner. Take the gravel road (New France Road) for 11.25 km and turn north on Silver River Road to the settlement’s remains . It flourished from 1894 – 1910 on the banks of the Silver River between two lakes. Although the site has now returned to woods, it once was known as New France and sometimes as Electric City. The little community enjoyed electric lighting operated by the mill’s power long before electricity was available in the rest of Digby County. Lumber was transported to the port some 17 miles away by a private railway, using tracks with rails made of logs. Part if the steam locomotive can still be seen in the surrounding comunity. On the way to New France, on the Irving Roads, there's small handpainted signage pointing the way to Balancing Rock. I would not suggest attempting this trail unless you are an avid offroader, though most SUVs **CAN** do it. The signage continues though somewhat obscure and the Balancing Rock is nothing short of spectacular. Local lore tells of an indian maiden still seen today in her birch bark canoe in the mist of Langford Lake.
