The regular walk in the morning… …followed by a snowshoe excursion in the afternoon. These are the things worth sharing. Just finished working on a proposal for five hours. Such tedious work without physical activity… and just like that another day is over! Good night, world!

Another Sunday, Another New Trail to Discover
There was a chill in the air but I had planned to check out a new trail as a possibility for my Wednesday hikers. My friend and I enjoyed the hike, we even found a way to make the original trail connect to create a loop. The terrain was steep, too steep for the variedContinue reading “Another Sunday, Another New Trail to Discover”
Nova Scotia Love!
Took one exit too soon… so worth it! Happy Friday, everyone.
Parrsboro: Wednesday Winter Walks & Hikes
In January 2023 I started to offer free guided hikes following the Wednesday morning walks. There was always at least one interested hiker and we set about exploring together. As 2023 drew to a close I wasn’t sure if offering another three-months of guided hikes would be of interest. I couldn’t have been more wrong!Continue reading “Parrsboro: Wednesday Winter Walks & Hikes”

It’s The Little Things…
…we delight in during a grocery run. The light near Five Islands was magical and drew us is! Every second the light changed! So grateful for living in paradise! Happy Weekend to all!
I Get Excited…
…when I find out a friend who has lived in Parrsboro longer than we have and they have never been to a popular look-off. My friend Robyn and I decided to get out before the weather changed. Exploring Partridge Island was the goal. Robyn had never navigated the trail up or down. I am confidentContinue reading “I Get Excited…”

Quick Excursion to Cape d’Or
We were so pleased to reconnect with our friends from Saskatchewan today. Susan and Brian are spending some time in Nova Scotia. Knowing how much they love to discover new landscapes we made the late afternoon decision to make a quick trip to Cape d’Or. The light and the cliffs did not disappoint!
A Day of Learning…
A fantastic day spent at the Joggins Fossil Cliffs with presenters from Digital Nova Scotia. So much to reflect on: digital marketing, embracing AI as a tool to assist with content and creating short videos for social media. There was a lot to unpack and as they said in closing: use it or loose it!Continue reading “A Day of Learning…”
Special Tour Day
About a week ago an email arrived inquiring about availability for an all-day tour for two artists. Today was the day we negotiated and we packed a lot into ten hours. First Stop: Crane Point near Ottawa House. We were keeping an eye on the incoming tide. The tide cut us off on the wayContinue reading “Special Tour Day”

Great Custom Tour with Clients from Alaska!
I just knew that an email ten days ago would bring very motivated clients my way! The brief requested a walk on the ocean floor and exploring dinosaurs! My initial hesitation centred around the fact that these best friends were arriving via cruise ship in Halifax and the logistics of getting them to the area.Continue reading “Great Custom Tour with Clients from Alaska!”
On a chilly morning…

Trail Scouting Day
We set out with the intention of hiking to Red Head Look-off in Five Islands Provincial Park only. The biggest reward was the way the cliff colours were illuminated just as we arrived at our destination. With the great weather we decided to hike through the campground and head toward the Estuary Trail, but notContinue reading “Trail Scouting Day”
