Who’d a thought a small little pub would generate so much publicity. It’s official (and thanks to my mom for the news), the Red Shoe Pub in Mabou, Cape Breton will re-open in May. The new owners, the Rankin Sisters, have bought the pub from the previous owner. Great news, too bad we’re 6000kms away and can’t enjoy the reopening.
For some related media sources on the event see this article.
Hey Dave, Just keep going with your research and who knows you will be making a trip down east and may have a chance to visit the RED SHOE for yourself.

Hmm. Will the Red Shoe still be open by the time Dave finishes his thesis? Perhaps little Davy Jr. will be of drinking age by then too 😛

I just sent an e-mail to my cousin in Maine regarding the good news about the Red Shoe Pub in Mabou being bought by the Rankin sisters, and soon to re-open in May! I know you’ll miss the grand re-opening, but I will fill you on all of the details!
