Okay, I gotta go, I'm in the middle of a big Bike race!

Shot hastily from the Lahave ferry this past Sunday, apparently some of these guys raced for 160 km!

There was a stiff onshore wind that afternoon, though on this leg of the race it must've provided a nice tailwind up the river.

Points if you catch the reference in the title...

Spotted up New Cumberland way...it really is that black!

What's on this weekend?

A plethora of events this week. Lots of brekkies and suppers to choose from on Saturday and Sunday (treat yer pa').

Next Saturday is the Conquerall Mills Horse/Ox Pull & Variety Supper, one of my 'must attend' events of the community supper season. NOT to be missed...

Check out this guest review from last year for an idea of what to expect..

Another beautiful sunset in Riverport

Shot Monday evening, the government wharf lights are visible on the left side of the image.

Mmmmack attack!

Asparagus, mushrooms, herring (top photo, in foreground) and mackerel are all local and in season...except that 'tater. Shame on me, that should be a new potato.

I will redeem myself and buy some new potatoes when it's time to make some hodge podge. Mmmm, hodge podge...

Church roof gets some 'bling'

I'm glad I stopped to get this shot on Saturday, the field of yellow caught my eye.

One day later it had been mowed and the yellow flowers were gone.

This church (name escapes me) recently got new siding and a gleaming metal roof and spire. I think it looks great, especially against that blue sky and sea of yellow!

*update* I have it from a reliable source, that this church is now privately owned...which would explain the expensive reno's!
