Sorry for the hasty image. Changes are in the works with three full years of blogging coming to an end. Daily blogs will beContinue reading “Special Delivery!”

Cape Chignecto Shelf Fungi
While hiking the Cape Chignecto Costal Trail last month I was struck by the variety of shelf fungi adorning the trees. Here is a small selection of various collections along the trail.
Near Sunset..
…a memory from my Cape Chignecto hike at the end of April.
Evergreen Content
“Evergreen Content” is a term we have all heard before, especially bloggers who have been at it for a while. I began blogging as part of the various websites I have created and maintained since 2008. I began FundyContemplations as a daily blog site on June 1st, 2021, long before I entertained the idea ofContinue reading “Evergreen Content”
Patterns Created by Wind and Waves
Anyone who has followed my blog for a while knows how much I love the ever-changing landscape. The tides present new surprises every time the beach emerges. Enjoy the offerings today!
Phinney Green on Victoria Day…
…with friends. A perfect day for a beach hike. Tranquility, sunshine, like-minded people, clouds reflecting in the Bay of Fundy and nothing but time!

Monday Morning at Rocky Lake
Light mist was rising as I made my way to the Halifax Search & Rescue training centre for one more day of learning this morning. When the sun emerged this visual haiku caught my attention. A visual haiku is a capture of two seasons… here we have autumn and spring, soft green tips unfurling andContinue reading “Monday Morning at Rocky Lake”
Chasing Northern Lights
The world has Aurora fever and I slept through it ast night! After a long day of training outdoors culminating in a night maneuver I only have the energy to look up before I slip into my tent. It’s overcast and there is light pollution… wishing everyone a restful night!
Night in the Forest
I am back in Lower Sackville this weekend for my Advanced Wilderness First Aid Module. What better way to spend Mother’s Day weekend than learning first aid skills, swatting black flies and tenting in the forest?🤪 I scouted my preferred spot last night and staked my tent after class today. Here is to sleeping soundlyContinue reading “Night in the Forest”
Emerging…
…ferns unfurling! Unmistakably spring!

Clark Head in Flat Light…
Sharing my favourite local beach at the end of the day. We stopped under the arch and enjoyed a freshly made cup of coffee. The perfect way to end a slightly gloomy day!
New Season = New Tour Clients!
There is no better way to spend Sunday afternoon than with a fresh tour booking to officially kick off the 2024 season. Soley Cove beckoned and it was glorious! My happy client was glad she didn’t have to worry about the tides and when she should turn back to avoid being cut off. She welcomedContinue reading “New Season = New Tour Clients!”
Cape Chignecto: Tree Over Bridge
…when you have to change your stride because a tree is in your path…
Cape Chignecto: Bark Study
Up close and personal, bark layers.
Cape Chignecto: Tranquility
Catching my breath and enjoying the silence along the coastal trail, Saturday, April 27th, 2024
Cape Chignecto Landmark: Storyteller Tree
Between trail marker 27 and 28 km, just before or after the halfway mark, depending if one travels clockwise or counter-clockwise, this ancient, gnarly, attention-demanding sentinel calls the hiker to attention! Many a picture has been captured with this tree… many a story could be told if it could speak!
Refugee Cove
Refugee Cove with the Ol’ Sal Sea Stack is a place for rest, filtering water and prepare for the last 11 km to complete the coastal loop. Bittersweet! Looking forward to my own bed😊
No Monday Blues Here…
That’s my lunch stop today. Isle Haute in the distance floating between heaven and earth!
