CFAI

101.1 FM CFAI is a station from Edmundston, New Brunswick along with a rebroadcaster located at 105.1 FM licensed to Grand-Sault, NB. After spending a few minutes unsuccessfully trying to find the history of CFAI at 1500 AM, I realized that the sticker actually reads "15 ans" and that ans is French for "years." Boy am I stupid. CFAI is listed as a Rock station in multiple places but their playlist seems to include a lot of Top-40 acts. It's safe to say that they're a CHR station at this point.

Ziplining

Took my son zip-lining through the canopy of the Hocking Hills this afternoon. After a short lesson on our equipment and how to brake, it was off to the cables to fling ourselves from tree to tree.
