This is a long standing saying on Prince Edward Island....if you live on Island but were not born on the Island or your just their visiting you will be refered to as "The Fella From Away"
You can move their when your one, die their when your 90, and at your funeral they will refer to you as "from away" LOL

I just found this song, the fella on the right played in my dads band right into their 50's....enjoy...

Thanks Fubar. I very much enjoy hearing of your PEI history and the music. Hopefully before they plant me in the dirt I'll have a chance to see your Island.

Around these parts, we have a saying as well. Every day, at the crack of dawn, you see someone you know and you say.............................Good Morning. Kinda like "from away" just different.
