Every once in a while you get a challenge that is all-consuming! I spent the day getting ready for a special beach treasure hunt tour with a young family from Toronto tomorrow! The Fundy Geological Museum passed my name on three weeks ago suggesting I might be able to take two young girls (7 andContinue reading “Prep Day!”

In the Footsteps of the Dinosaurs at Wasson’s Bluff & Two Islands
Gillespie House B&B guests tore themselves away from these gorgeous grounds to explore the geology along two well-known and popular beaches along the Parrsboro Shore. Four hours well spent looking for rocks, crabs, hermit crabs and watching the tide rise around Eagle Island! We had mist, fog and even some rain which meant the newContinue reading “In the Footsteps of the Dinosaurs at Wasson’s Bluff & Two Islands”
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”
Wasson’s Bluff Excursion
I kicked off a new and free hiking program in Parrsboro today. The fact that one hiker showed up means that it is already a success! Maddie and I set out to Wasson’s Bluff as planned. But as we arrived at the beach we assessed our situation in relation to the tide and decided toContinue reading “Wasson’s Bluff Excursion”
Wasson’s Bluff Two Islands Beach
It was lightly snowing in Parrsboro today but I had to scout a beach for a hike scheduled for Wednesday. Risk Assessment and hazard reduction/elimination is first and foremost on a field leader’s mind when planning a group hike. The approach to this beach can be difficult with washed out sections but today it passedContinue reading “Wasson’s Bluff Two Islands Beach”
Tour Day!
Sometimes the best days are those that are planned at the spur of the moment. Today was such a day! Two lovely guests to Parrsboro were interested in exploring the shore. We made it to Phinney Green just before high tide. The clouds parted and the sun illuminated the beach perfectly for pictures. The afternoonContinue reading “Tour Day!”

Our first stop was Wasson’s Bluff shortly after sunrise on Tuesday. Tuesday afternoon we ventured to Five Island Provincial Park to explore the beach aroundContinue reading “Rock Hounding in the Bay of Fundy”
Parrsboro at Sunrise…
Getting up before sunrise happens when an early hike is planned. Today I am showing a visitor to Parrsboro some of our spectacular sights in the Fundy GeoPark. Our first stop is Wasson’s Bluff. The sunrise was spectacular at the bottom of our backyard and when I turned to make my way to the meetingContinue reading “Parrsboro at Sunrise…”
Wasson’s Bluff to Clarke Head…
…”I don’t think you can do that…” was the answer to my question shortly after we arrived in late 2020. I had inquired with the walking group I belonged to at the time. It’s taken me nearly 18 months to prove to myself that crossing the mudflats is definitely an option. I arrived at Wasson’sContinue reading “Wasson’s Bluff to Clarke Head…”
