A Wet Adventure For A Great Cause!
I can’t imagine a better way to start a rainy Saturday in October😜… get up at 5:45, pile everyone into the car for a 6:45 departure and drive in complete darkness on muddy gravel roads to walk 10+km to raise funds for the Pugwash Ground Search & Rescue organization. The trail was well signed, itContinue reading “A Wet Adventure For A Great Cause!”
Last Minute Soley Cove Autumn Tour…
…with a sweet honeymoon couple! The request was for flowerpots… I think I delivered! Fabulous Friday morning low tide walk in October!
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”
Glowing…
Maple leaves turning A magic sight to behold – Signs of autumn now!
Wait Five Minutes…

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!”
Balance…
Two rocks balancing High above relentless tides – Through seasons they stand.
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!
Hike NS Fall Hike #2
I am leading free hikes this fall under the Hike Nova Scotia umbrella in conjunction with the Cliffs of Fundy Geopark. Last Saturday was my second hike, the Partridge Island Eco-Loop was our destination. I had several last minute cancellations due to illness. In the end I headed out with Larry and Caleb. Caleb isContinue reading “Hike NS Fall Hike #2”
Jeffers Falls Revisited
Our multi-hike day last Thursday ended with checking on the trail to Jeffers Falls. There were some minor improvements, especially at the point where it used to be difficult to determine which way the path leads approaching the final section near the scree slope. I continue to stand by my evaluation that the final sectionContinue reading “Jeffers Falls Revisited”
Hidden Falls – Best Kept Secret To Date!
Those who have followed my blog for a while saw my post from August where I tried to reach Hidden Falls but the high water in the brook prevented my attempt at crossing. I tried twice more… to mo avail. Last Thursday, October 5th, my friend and I stopped on the way back from FiveContinue reading “Hidden Falls – Best Kept Secret To Date!”
Thanksgiving Blessings

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”
It’s beginning to look a lot like… autumn!
So, we did a thing today😜… we jumped in the car to check on fall colours. One of my favourite places is the sugar bush in Fenwick. By this time last year we were almost past “leaf peeper season”… this year it’s just beginning! Enjoy the images, Happy Thanksgiving weekend!
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”
Trail Scouting Expedition
I am leading a guided hike for Hike Nova Scotia on Saturday. Today was the day to check on the trail. There were no surprises along the beach leading to Partridge Island. The weather was spectacular and the trail was deserted. At the start of the trail the earth was wet and I had toContinue reading “Trail Scouting Expedition”
Fall Colours at That Dutchman’s Cheese Farm in Economy
Just had to share! We stopped at That Dutchman Cheese Farm for some supplies and these are the colours that greeted us. Nothing can make a mundane shopping trip more enticing than lush flower beds and autumnal reds… enjoy!
