Moody Clarke Head…
There was a little rain, a little sun, wind and… solitude! Sharing images from my solitary, at times moody, low tide hike to Clarke Head. Enjoy! I certainly did.

German Language Tour, My First!
There is a time for everything… this weekend I had a chance to share Soley Cove with visitors from Vienna. The rain held off and I dug deep into my memory for German terminology to do our Jurassic Coast line in the Upper Bay of Fundy justice. The tide was high and relatively slow inContinue reading “German Language Tour, My First!”

New-To-Me-Beach Hike
Yesterday morning started out full of magic… this was the view from my living room window. I was ready soon after to join my friend for a hike to a beach I had never explored.

Redhead Look-off and Five Islands Provincial Park Hike Recap
A warm autumn day, sunshine, perfect morning light and a bald eagle overhead… We parked our car in the parking lot near the Provincial Park gate and set out for the trail head.

Early Morning at the Foot of Partridge Island
It was my first time since Tropical Storm Lee had pounded our shoreline. And the changes I saw today were surprising. It really drove home the fact that the erosion of our shores is relentless. My goal this morning was to access the back beach at Partridge Island, it was the last day of veryContinue reading “Early Morning at the Foot of Partridge Island”
Witnessing the fog lift…
…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!

Drama in the Sky around Clarke Head
We are preparing for the arrival of Hurricane Lee. There is only so much one can do, eventually you sit back and wait. My way to get ready is to head to the beach to survey and anticipate changes. I was treated to some stunning textures in the sky that seemed to intensify the coloursContinue reading “Drama in the Sky around Clarke Head”
Soley Cove Solo Hike Turn Contemplative Photo Excursion
Two days ago I shared a summary of this hike in the form of three videos. I seldom get the opportunity to walk the ocean floor by myself these days. It was a magical time!

Spicer’s Cove is on the way to the Eatonville Day-use Area. I stopped here recently during a private tour for a visitor to the area and vowed to return soon.

There was sand, red mud, seaweed hiding some quicksand-like sections that sucked my legs in to well above my ankles and, justContinue reading “Hot and Humid Beach Hike: Summary in Three Videos”
