So I'm up in Meteghan Nova Scotia, 25 miles north of Yarmouth. Refitting a dragger to bring back to the states.
I'm working with this fellow Paul (amongst a host of others), so naturally we're shooting the crap about stuff. Keep in mind, this is the boondocks, bigtime.
Paul's 59. he tells me his Mom worked at a Frenchies way back. Frenchies are stores that sell "recycled," clothes. There are 2 of them within 10 miles of Meteghan currently. They get pallets of clothes from the States, and go thru them, keeping the decent items, and putting them out for retail sale. The clothes that are not worth resale for various reasons, are relegated to become rags.
So Paul's mom is going thru a pallet of clothes, and comes upon a jacket......with the logo, Indiana State. She is intrigued, and while checking it out, holding it up, feels something in the pocket. A ring. Larry Birds final four ring.
