And the Sunshine Returns…

All is well… Nova Scotia and New Brunswick received a big gift from Mother Nature. We weren’t affected too much. Best of all, it turned the world into a magical winter wonderland!

And so it begins…

The forecast for a major winter storm has been circulating in the news for several days. With temperatures around +10 C yesterday and blue skies I made it to the beach twice. In the morning the tide was out and it afforded us a nice, leisurely walk. When I returned to the same beach theContinue reading “And so it begins…”

The Ancients…

As long as it is not snowing, the wind too strong or the rain pelting down I make an effort to get out even during the winter… Diligent River called!

Phinney Green

The last beach excursion of 2021 was full of contemplation and discovery. Join me as I recount the experience…

Walking Toward the Light…

I embarked on a long walk along the Fundy Shore recently… it helped to clear the cobwebs from my mind while I concentrated on the amazing scenery. Happy New Year! Grab a cup of coffee or tea and walk with me…

Hardscrabble Road hugs the Fundy coastline till it connects with Cove Road and you have a choice to carry on to Menudie or turnContinue reading “Hardscrabble Road”

Road Trip!

The Joggins, a significant geological site in the earth’s natural history is located only about 45 minutes from where we live. This was our second visit there but it is definitely not our last!

Merry Christmas from the Beach…

I still pinch myself every time we head to the beach in the winter… The Bay of Fundy holds so much magic no matter which beach we stop at!

Great Village…

…a great village to explore, especially if you are into antiques and collectibles. Perhaps you are a regular viewer of CBC’s Land & Sea and caught this episode that first aired on November 21st? Perhaps you watched it but didn’t really know where this grouping of antique stores can be found. Wonder no more: GreatContinue reading “Great Village…”
