…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!

A Time-Honoured Tradition: Story Time…
…Thursday night story time at Ottawa-House-by-the-Sea! The Bay of Fundy was calm, the sky a lead grey foreshadowing tomorrow’s weather forecast of rain as we arrived and parked the car. Story time goes from 7 – 8:30 pm each Thursday during the summer. We love this time and place for deepening our understanding of theContinue reading “A Time-Honoured Tradition: Story Time…”
Canada Day 2023…
… we had sun, some cloud, and at times heavy downpours! But as the saying goes: wait five minutes and it will change!

And suddenly it is autumn…
I know, I know… there are still a few days of summer left according to the calendar and yet, the light has definitely changed. Sunsets tend to bathe the forest across the river in rich gold tones and burgundies push greens from creeping vines. The apples are ripening and the days are much shorter. AllContinue reading “And suddenly it is autumn…”
Happy Canada Day!
I can hardly believe it: this is our second Canada Day living in Nova Scotia. Time seemed to just fly! The day promises to be filled with great activities. Our choir will be performing at Ottawa House by the Sea. I snapped the picture above during our dress rehearsal last night. There is also aContinue reading “Happy Canada Day!”
Story Time?
…a sense of excitement among our friends… their statement “It’s story time at Ottawa house tonight…” seemed like an open invitation not to be ignored…
Thomas Cove Excursion
…Two hours well spent and with a memory card full of images…
