Share-worthy: Kingdom of the Tide
I spent my morning in a choice spot along the Upper Bay of Fundy Minas Basin on the beach at Five Islands Provincial Park. After a stormy day and night the wind was easing up a little, enough that I could lean into it and not lose my footing. I tried to capture the forceContinue reading “Share-worthy: Kingdom of the Tide”

Soley Cove: Delight for Newbie and Repeat Hiker Alike
The sun accompanied these keen hikers for our special Wednesday afternoon outing today. Not many words are necessary to show how much the group enjoyed their time! Coffee time with Fundy Jewel treats in the sun was the proverbial icing on the cake. Soley Cove never disappoints. I am already blocking tour dates from JuneContinue reading “Soley Cove: Delight for Newbie and Repeat Hiker Alike”
Cape Spencer: A Hike Through All Seasons
Sharing a lesser known hike destination as a birthday gift was on the agenda today. Through the seven hour outing we enjoyed cloudy conditions, light rain, bright sunshine, azure sky dotted with clouds and snow. The tide was well on its way out exposing much of the large pebble beach. The rocks captured our attentionContinue reading “Cape Spencer: A Hike Through All Seasons”
Halifax Public Gardens: In Search of Spring!

McGahey Brook Trail Loop in Cape Chignecto Provincial Park
A last minute invitation to join friends on a hike today was a welcome diversion from spending time on the computer. We set out from the Driftwood Beach parking lot in West Advocate exploring the ever-changing pebble beach. We turned around near the organic Atlantic salmon plant and headed toward the Red Rocks at theContinue reading “McGahey Brook Trail Loop in Cape Chignecto Provincial Park”
Parrsboro’s First Beach at Low Tide
There wasn’t much time to get a walk in today. We are so fortunate here in Parrsboro that the beach is very accessible. It was a great day for finding sea glass and enjoying the view from the edge of the water before the tide pushed us back to high ground.

Wilderness First Aid, Part 3
Last night around this time (after our supper break) we reviewed all things hypothermia, followed by the hands on lesson of doing the “burrito” for someone affected by cold injuries. The lesson was a valuable review for me as this particular subject had been covered during my OCC Winter Field Leader course nearly 18 monthsContinue reading “Wilderness First Aid, Part 3”
Weekend Away to Upgrade Skills
This is what I woke up to this morning. I was certainly glad I drove to Halifax last night. It was not an easy trip with the torrential rain navigating the highway and twisting, winding roads to the Halifax Search and Rescue Centre. My first night I opted to sleep in the car and myContinue reading “Weekend Away to Upgrade Skills”
