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.

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”

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!

Witnessing the fog lift…

…from Ottawa House-by-the-Sea beach. It was a tranquil Friday morning. I didn’t have to share the beach with anyone. What a treat! There was only 15 minutes between the first and last image of Ottawa House. Hope you are enjoying a relaxing weekend so far!

Waiting for Lee…

Hurricane Lee is steadily advancing. With most of our preparations completed I felt the need to head to the beach. I was amazed by the calm that awaited. Diligent River Beach was approaching low tide and the light was soft and magical. It had been a while since my last visit. I could barely believeContinue reading “Waiting for Lee…”

Soley Cove Solo Hike Turn Contemplative Photo Excursion

Two days ago I shared a summary of this hike in the form of three videos. I seldom get the opportunity to walk the ocean floor by myself these days. It was a magical time! I accessed the beach just two hours after high tide and as a result had several waits at various pinchContinue reading “Soley Cove Solo Hike Turn Contemplative Photo Excursion”

Bushwhacking the Economy Trail Loop at Thomas Cove

I had not been here in a little over three months and what a surprise we had. I always considered this trail easy to navigate. Yes, there are exposed roots and a few muddy sections to consider but overall I felt it was suitable for most abilities. My trail test subject today was Colin. WeContinue reading “Bushwhacking the Economy Trail Loop at Thomas Cove”

Can’t Get Enough: Meeting of the Waters, Take Two!

Last night at Ottawa House Story Time I met Becky and her mom who were travelling together from south of the border. While we chatted I mentioned that they are here during the Super Moon and that the tides are very high at the moment. The Meeting of the Waters came up and we quicklyContinue reading “Can’t Get Enough: Meeting of the Waters, Take Two!”

Once in a Blue Moon Low Tide Two Islands Tour

Today’s early morning, once in a lifetime tour was in the planning stages for the past six weeks. These clients contacted me after my debut on the “Keep Your Daydream” feature of Soley Cove. The request was “We are looking for an adventure!” “An adventure you shall have…” was my reply. And the suggestion ofContinue reading “Once in a Blue Moon Low Tide Two Islands Tour”

Custom Tour: Parrsboro to Eatonville and back!

We started out in Parrsboro with a quick stop at the Bubbling Tides near Partridge Island, a sight to behold! Our destination was the Eatonville Day-use Area where we explored the Three Sisters Loop. Views of rugged cliffs, Anderson Cove, Sea Pillars, the site of the old Eatonville settlement and harbour and finally the ThreeContinue reading “Custom Tour: Parrsboro to Eatonville and back!”

Three Trail Safety Checks

Glorious sunshine with mid-day high tides point to time in the forest! Hidden Falls had been calling me for months. The trailhead is located on Hwy 2 just past Prospect Road with a small parking area to safely pull your vehicle off the road while you enjoy time in the forest. Thanks to the wetContinue reading “Three Trail Safety Checks”

Soley Cove Sunday Afternoon

Yesterday’s rain cleared and a dry, pleasant day emerged this morning. It was perfect for an ocean floor excursion with first time visitors to Nova Scotia. My clients today hailed from Georgia and North Carolina. One client contacted me late yesterday. She had heard of me from friends I had shown the Parrsboro Shore fourContinue reading “Soley Cove Sunday Afternoon”
