Maple, Montebello, Music, Memories: A Girls’ Getaway With Ford

By //  by Vanessa Chiasson Leave a Comment

Was ‘Despacito’ REALLY the song of the summer for 2017? Every road trip beings with a moment of reflection and introspection, doesn't it? The status of 'Despacito'  weighed on my mind and I knew just who to debate it with. Our girls getaway to Chateau Montebello, was all about what really matters. Like the pros and cons of Justin Bieber singing in Spanish, or what songs are truly indispensable on a cross country journey.  When it came to debating the big questions in life, …

I Love Ford Flex

I Love Ford Flex

By //  by Candace Sampson 1 Comment

I love Ford Flex and I don't care who knows it. In fact, there was only one thought coursing through my brain when I took it for a test drive late this August. How far could I get before they noticed I wasn't coming back with it? Dreams of cruising down Route 66 filled my brain and I was giddy. Giddy I tell you. You see, the kind people at Ford Ottawa let me test drive this baby once before and I fell in love with it, but never wrote a post. I'm part slacker, part evil genius. They let me …
