The Meeting of the Waters: Cat Bird Seat to Experiencing Tidal Force

Visitors to the Bay of Fundy’s Minas Basin usually hear about “The Highest Tides in the World” but unless one witnesses the tidal bore forging up a river, the incoming tidal speed, force and volume of water remains an abstract idea. In Parrsboro we are very fortunate because there is one beach where one gainsContinue reading “The Meeting of the Waters: Cat Bird Seat to Experiencing Tidal Force”

Lobster Boil in the Rain?

When you have a confirmed booking for a lobster boil you can’t let rain get in the way. The Pleasant Street Inn received a request for my services along with a room reservation some time ago. We were watching the weather carefully for days and it looked promising for tonight. The rain was supposed toContinue reading “Lobster Boil in the Rain?”

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! Our family started this Canada Day by taking the almost eight-week-old puppy out for her first walk in nature! It was a bit of a challenge: Six steps and half a meterContinue reading “Canada Day 2023…”

Soley Cove Photo Tour

Guiding a tour in Soley Cove is always a highlight in my schedule. Leading a photo tour is even more special because I get to don my photographer’s hat and view the cliffs through a different lens. J. and L. contacted me from their home in Alberta several weeks ago to inquire about the availabilityContinue reading “Soley Cove Photo Tour”

Welcoming the Summer Solstice…

A small group embarked on the long-anticipated special Summer Solstice hike to Clarke Head tonight! It was a compatible group of women, conversation flowed easily over the driftwood fire, tea and home-baked goodies. Sunset was at 9:07 pm as we headed back to our starting point. We were treated to the most magical light asContinue reading “Welcoming the Summer Solstice…”

Rock Hunting Guided Tour

The weather cooperated today! The rain stopped just as we arrived at our starting point. It held off for the entire time we explored the beach. My wonderful clients from Virginia really enjoyed their time on Two Islands Beach as we experienced the tide moving out to expose the ocean floor! When the sun pushedContinue reading “Rock Hunting Guided Tour”

Monday… a day to plan and collaborate!

I just picked some random photos from yesterday as today was one of those rare days where I didn’t make it to the beach. Instead I spent a good amount of time in meetings to plan some special tours and events for fall and winter. It’s never too early to get organized! I am inContinue reading “Monday… a day to plan and collaborate!”
