First impressions are great at Cochrane Road Beach in Port Greville. We truly love this beach for walks at high and low tide and anytime in-between. Waves leaping at the shore, gulls squawking overhead and an occasional bald eagle soaring high in the sky. Upon closer inspection we discover pieces of plastic, rope of varyingContinue reading “Giving Back”

The Cliffs are Disintegrating!
The annual scheduled birthday beach clean up with friends was cancelled due to the weather forecast. When I didn’t hear back from one of my out-of-town friends I decided to head to the beach and intercept him just in case. The road was wet! How wet? When the pine needles begin to form patterns youContinue reading “The Cliffs are Disintegrating!”
Edgett’s Beach at High Tide
Edgett’s Beach is located in West Apple River near the Eatonville Day Use Area. We decided to go on a drive this afternoon and as we neared Advocate Harbour fog rolled in from the Bay of Fundy. Once we arrived at Edgett’s Beach the fog was on its way out and just at the timeContinue reading “Edgett’s Beach at High Tide”

Once the light rain slowed I beganContinue reading “A Beach Clean Up Story…”

Diligent River is a great place to explore in any weather and season. Today I arrived precisely at low tide with glorious sunshine overhead and I was able to take advantage of the full expanse of the beach. Even the Ramshead River was so low that if I had worn rubber boots I could haveContinue reading “Diligent River Low Tide Exploration in Sunshine”
The Last Day of 2022
From first light till sunset (which was not too memorable nor visible) it was a perfect day to say good bye to 2022. There was just enough time to get in one more walk at Five Islands Lighthouse Park Beach complete with collecting 7 lbs of trash. Good night world! See you in 2023! BestContinue reading “The Last Day of 2022”
Best Birthday Ever!
What does a cargo space in our SUV stuffed with beach trash have to do with the best birthday ever? It signifies the sense of community along the Parrsboro shore where friends come together and pitch in to reduce trash along the Bay of Fundy.. Together, in 2.5 hours, we pulled 175.5 lbs of trashContinue reading “Best Birthday Ever!”
A Windy but Productive Day
We woke up to -2 C this morning… and a stiff wind was blowing. But nothing deters us when we have committed to a beach clean up. Our friend Heather had organized this event and as good friends we didn’t want to leave her hanging. We braved the cold (at least -10 C with theContinue reading “A Windy but Productive Day”
