Never has picking the title of an episode been more difficult.

"We're just chatty by nature" was a solid option. "The locals call it the old post office" is another great choice. But the story of how locals pronounce Chezzetcook had me laughing for days. It is just too rural Nova Scotia to leave out.

For Toby Schwartz of East Chezzetcook, Nova Scotia, home is never far from her mind. Despite a life filled with adventure across Asia as a Canadian diplomat, there is no denying where Toby calls Home.

Add in a story about the role of Halifax's iconic Harbour Hopper in her wedding and you have yourself a classic East Coast yarn not to be missed!
