When Life Hands You Lemons…

…or your vacation in the heart of the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark is more soggy than you bargained for stop sitting in your B&B! No matter how comfortable it may be and how wonderful the hosts are… and how many cups of tea or coffee and goodies they keep supplying, there comes a time whereContinue reading “When Life Hands You Lemons…”

From Forest Bathing to Beach Surfing… All in a Day’s Work!

Following all the rain we have had my mushrooming buddy and I gathered our collecting baskets, knifes and soft brushes and set out for our favourite stand of trees to check on the growing phase of chanterelles. Verdict: wait another week or two and check back then. This afternoon I took the puppy to theContinue reading “From Forest Bathing to Beach Surfing… All in a Day’s Work!”

Canada Day 2023…

… we had sun, some cloud, and at times heavy downpours! But as the saying goes: wait five minutes and it will change! Our family started this Canada Day by taking the almost eight-week-old puppy out for her first walk in nature! It was a bit of a challenge: Six steps and half a meterContinue reading “Canada Day 2023…”

Still New Sites to Explore: FORCE Research Centre For Energy in the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark

We had an opportunity to join Caleb Grant, geoscientist from the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark, and Sandra Currie for a tour of the FORCE research center on energy and its beach in Westbay, just outside of Parrsboro, this afternoon. The Center is well worth a visit. Put it on your list for a rainy day.Continue reading “Still New Sites to Explore: FORCE Research Centre For Energy in the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark”

Soley Cove Photo Tour

Guiding a tour in Soley Cove is always a highlight in my schedule. Leading a photo tour is even more special because I get to don my photographer’s hat and view the cliffs through a different lens. J. and L. contacted me from their home in Alberta several weeks ago to inquire about the availabilityContinue reading “Soley Cove Photo Tour”

Welcoming the Summer Solstice…

A small group embarked on the long-anticipated special Summer Solstice hike to Clarke Head tonight! It was a compatible group of women, conversation flowed easily over the driftwood fire, tea and home-baked goodies. Sunset was at 9:07 pm as we headed back to our starting point. We were treated to the most magical light asContinue reading “Welcoming the Summer Solstice…”

Had to check: Clarke Head is still standing…

…which is vital for our upcoming Summer Solstice Sunset Hike! Had a great outing this morning, drizzle and chilly wind included. The weather for Wednesday is very promising. I have a couple spots open, so if you have held off to register contact me soon to reserve your spot! Here is the direct link toContinue reading “Had to check: Clarke Head is still standing…”

Hired to guide… thanks to a Google search!

This was definitely a first for me! A travel influencer family from Florida found me on Google while planning their Nova Scotia itinerary. I had forgotten that there would be filming… I had agreed to that in the contact email but assumed it would be all about the landscape. Well, it was about the landscapeContinue reading “Hired to guide… thanks to a Google search!”

Bushwhacking Required…

It was time to discover new beach territory today. This beach access is not for the faint of heart. The ground was very uneven, boggy and covered with high grass making us second guess each step. A little creek merged with the rough, almost completely overgrown foot path. I must admit, if I had beenContinue reading “Bushwhacking Required…”

Tuesday Evening Walks All Summer in Beautiful Parrsboro!

Just putting this out here for everyone! NSWalks continues to be active in Parrsboro. We walk in any weather! There are two separate groups. The Parrsboro Pacers have moved from Wednesday mornings to Tuesday nights to avoid the summer heat! These walks are free and are organized and led by a certified NSWalks leader.

Monday… a day to plan and collaborate!

I just picked some random photos from yesterday as today was one of those rare days where I didn’t make it to the beach. Instead I spent a good amount of time in meetings to plan some special tours and events for fall and winter. It’s never too early to get organized! I am inContinue reading “Monday… a day to plan and collaborate!”

Time Travel at the Joggins Fossil Cliffs

It’s been a while since I last descended the staircase to the beach below the Joggins Fossil Cliffs, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Today the weather was perfect for a long beach hike with friends… on the agenda was Lower Cove to view the Coal Age fossil trees I have heard so much about. It’sContinue reading “Time Travel at the Joggins Fossil Cliffs”

Have you ever…?

…heard of such a thing like your “house beach?” Truth be told, I made it up today. I was once again exploring the stretch of beach from Glooscap Campground to the arch at Clark Head when I remembered growing up in a small Bavarian village where we referred to one mountain as our “house mountain”,Continue reading “Have you ever…?”

Evening Beach Walks are Back!

It’s a sign that summer is (nearly) here. We have switched our weekly NSWalks from Wednesday mornings to Tuesday evenings in anticipation of the heat. It was a small contingent that gathered tonight after the rain stopped. A blanket of fog was draped over Cape Blomidon in the distance. We refer to it as Glooscap’sContinue reading “Evening Beach Walks are Back!”

Among The Trees…

… was the title of the video that popped up on my phone today. Strange how it evoked a longing to head out and explore the forest. An hour after the video presented itself the notice, that hiking restrictions in wooded areas are now lifted in Nova Scotia, was issued. The rain we have enjoyedContinue reading “Among The Trees…”
