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”

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.

Bush Whacking Adventure Leads Us Up the Creek

The plan to visit Hidden Falls was quickly abandoned when this happened: When Heather broke through the ice and diverted the flow of water we quickly changed plans and set out for another option. The creek without a name near Moose River was calling us. We quickly left the skidoo path and made our wayContinue reading “Bush Whacking Adventure Leads Us Up the Creek”

To Jeffers Falls and Beyond

Waking up to sunshine and blue sky was just what we hoped for. My friend and I had planned this particular excursion for a while and after rain, snow and flash freeze yesterday the conditions were perfect. Our hike led past Jeffers Falls where we discovered beautiful ice flows with edges smoothed by the waterContinue reading “To Jeffers Falls and Beyond”

Soley Cove – Icicles and Magical Winter Light

On a whim my friend and I headed out to Soley Cove. Anne had never been, so I was keen on showing her this stretch of the Jurassic Coast line in the Upper Bay of Fundy. The sky was overcast and the diffused sunlight showcased the red sandstone cliffs to their best advantage. With longContinue reading “Soley Cove – Icicles and Magical Winter Light”

Today’s afternoon excursion in the sun led us to Wards Brook Beach, the Brookville Formation and beyond. Soaking in the sunshine, a relaxing cuppa andContinue reading “Wednesdays Along the Parrsboro Shore: walk in the a. m. – hike in the p. m.”
