…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…”

Soley Cove on a Sunday Morning
Our internet was restored a short while ago and I can finally post the great photos from the Soley Cove excursion yesterday morning. It was my pleasure to take the new owners of the Parrsboro Mansion on a complimentary ocean floor tour. We had planned this outing for several weeks. Yesterday everything was perfect: theContinue reading “Soley Cove on a Sunday Morning”
Special Tour
After much planning, a couple cancellations due to sickness we finally got out to Soley Cove for a complimentary tour for Parrsboro Accommodation providers! I would love to post more images but Parrsboro and area has been without internet since Saturday morning… one picture is all I can manage to upload a day! Stay tunedContinue reading “Special Tour”
Thomas Cove Economy Loop Trail
After a quick hike around the Thomas Cove Economy Trail Loop we said good bye to our Saskatchewan friends today. This 4 km loop shows off some of the best the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark has to offer: lush woodlands contrasting against red sandstone cliffs. Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

Special Tour Day
About a week ago an email arrived inquiring about availability for an all-day tour for two artists. Today was the day we negotiated and we packed a lot into ten hours. First Stop: Crane Point near Ottawa House. We were keeping an eye on the incoming tide. The tide cut us off on the wayContinue reading “Special Tour Day”
Four Seasons Retreat – A True Gem Along the Fundy Shore
Yesterday was one of those days where the weather wouldn’t make up its mind. There was a real chill in the air and just when it was time to get on the road for a meeting it started to snow. The weather was perfect to get me in the mood for the meeting: I wasContinue reading “Four Seasons Retreat – A True Gem Along the Fundy Shore”
Rainy Days like today…
…make me peruse my summer memories. Today’s video is of the Five Islands Provincial Park Region featuring the Old Wife Formation at the start scanning toward Old Wife Rock and ending with Moose Island and the Five Islands Provincial Park cliffs. Always a favourite of mine!
Great Custom Tour with Clients from Alaska!
I just knew that an email ten days ago would bring very motivated clients my way! The brief requested a walk on the ocean floor and exploring dinosaurs! My initial hesitation centred around the fact that these best friends were arriving via cruise ship in Halifax and the logistics of getting them to the area.Continue reading “Great Custom Tour with Clients from Alaska!”
A Picture Worth a Thousand Words…
Soley Cove Beach discovery: weathered tree root, covered in seaweed washed up on the sandbar…
Moody Clarke Head…
There was a little rain, a little sun, wind and… solitude! Sharing images from my solitary, at times moody, low tide hike to Clarke Head. Enjoy! I certainly did.
Five Islands Provincial Park Estuary Trail
It was one of those days: hours spent in front of the computer catching up on office stuff and correspondence called for some much needed time in nature. We decided on the Five Islands Provincial Park Estuary Loop, a well defined undulating trail through the woods with some small hills to get the heart rateContinue reading “Five Islands Provincial Park Estuary Trail”
Contributing to a Community Fundraiser
Parrsboro Creative, a local umbrella organization, is hosting their first ever Gala Dinner, Dance & Auction this coming Saturday, October 21st. I delivered my donation today. It consists of two parts: some art… and a guided ocean walk tour! The art pulled me back into the studio for several afternoons and evenings. The ocean floorContinue reading “Contributing to a Community Fundraiser”
German Language Tour, My First!
There is a time for everything… this weekend I had a chance to share Soley Cove with visitors from Vienna. The rain held off and I dug deep into my memory for German terminology to do our Jurassic Coast line in the Upper Bay of Fundy justice. The tide was high and relatively slow inContinue reading “German Language Tour, My First!”
New-To-Me-Beach Hike
Yesterday morning started out full of magic… this was the view from my living room window. I was ready soon after to join my friend for a hike to a beach I had never explored. We drove to Advocate Harbour and parked at the foot of the “hump”, the bottom of where the road toContinue reading “New-To-Me-Beach Hike”
The View from Cape Spencer
Tranquil moments while observing the receding tide at Cape Spencer just after noon. If you ever wondered how strong the currents are… this video might provide some insight!
Redhead Look-off and Five Islands Provincial Park Hike Recap
A warm autumn day, sunshine, perfect morning light and a bald eagle overhead… We parked our car in the parking lot near the Provincial Park gate and set out for the trail head. I had hiked the Redhead Look-off Trail once in February. While a light dusting of snow presented a magical winter landscape IContinue reading “Redhead Look-off and Five Islands Provincial Park Hike Recap”
Trail Scouting Day
We set out with the intention of hiking to Red Head Look-off in Five Islands Provincial Park only. The biggest reward was the way the cliff colours were illuminated just as we arrived at our destination. With the great weather we decided to hike through the campground and head toward the Estuary Trail, but notContinue reading “Trail Scouting Day”
