Parrsboro: Wednesday Winter Walks & Hikes

In January 2023 I started to offer free guided hikes following the Wednesday morning walks. There was always at least one interested hiker and we set about exploring together. As 2023 drew to a close I wasn’t sure if offering another three-months of guided hikes would be of interest. I couldn’t have been more wrong!Continue reading “Parrsboro: Wednesday Winter Walks & Hikes”

Blue Sky and Stunning Views…

…and an ice study along the way! My friend and I ventured up nearby Kirkhill today. We met with our goal of scouting a new hike destination. It’s official: This mid-week Winter hike will explore a 3 km loop on top of Kirkhill, a popular destination in the Parrsboro area.

Winter Watch From The Couch

The storm arrived around 3 pm this afternoon. We had not seen such high tidal activity since Christmas 2022. Within ten minutes visibility was poor and I counted my blessings for the warm house. An hour later things had calmed down and the tide receded. But this didn’t last long. Rain is creating rivulets onContinue reading “Winter Watch From The Couch”

Important Lessons…

…when planning events: Always scout your venues! That is exactly how I spent my afternoon. The upcoming “Three Waterfalls Hike” for Friday is in jeopardy due to several factors. When I planned the event in November I was certain we would have enough snow and cold temperatures to be able to cross creek without peril.Continue reading “Important Lessons…”

It’s The Little Things…

…we delight in during a grocery run. The light near Five Islands was magical and drew us is! Every second the light changed! So grateful for living in paradise! Happy Weekend to all!

I Get Excited…

…when I find out a friend who has lived in Parrsboro longer than we have and they have never been to a popular look-off. My friend Robyn and I decided to get out before the weather changed. Exploring Partridge Island was the goal. Robyn had never navigated the trail up or down. I am confidentContinue reading “I Get Excited…”

First Winter Hike Recap in Pictures

I started offering free hikes to Parrsboro Shore community members from January through March 2023. Building on last year’s popularity I am organizing more hikes from January through March 2024. We kicked the season off today by circling the Five Islands Estuary Trail Loop. Six humans and one canine enjoyed nature and each other’s company.Continue reading “First Winter Hike Recap in Pictures”

As 2023 Comes to a Close…

…the beach called for one last walk. I love New Year’s Eve in Nova Scotia. This is our fourth New Year’s Eve in Parrsboro and I am so grateful for the opportunity to visit one of many beaches on the last day of the year to let go of those things that might hold meContinue reading “As 2023 Comes to a Close…”

It’s Boxing Day … and the Beach is Calling!

After so much time in the kitchen and entertaining friends for the holidays I made sure to keep Boxing Day free! My invitation to like-minded friends was well-received: I had a full vehicle of people who were yearning to breathe in some fresh air, tromp through the woods and step onto a beach that hasContinue reading “It’s Boxing Day … and the Beach is Calling!”

Winter Solstice Blessings

Yesterday’s glorious sunset promised a beautiful day ahead. Well, Mother Nature had a different idea. We woke up to strong winds and grey sky. Friends who had expressed interest in participating in the hike decided against battling the elements. The fact that there is no such thing as bad weather when one has proper clothingContinue reading “Winter Solstice Blessings”

Two more sleeps…

…until the guided Winter Solstice Hike to Clarke Head. At this time there are no registrations. It does not deter me. I am packing and getting ready. I recently invested in some audio visual accessories to capture video of my hike destinations. No matter whether I hike solo on Thursday or others join me atContinue reading “Two more sleeps…”
