If you get a chance, take a drive to a beach and stick your toes in the water.  The ocean temps this week have been cool, but pleasant (~18 C), hopefully this warm water trend continues into September, but you never know.....

Sunday has a head to head seafood battle on the west side of the river.  I wish these folks would coordinate so they didn't schedule two awesome dinners at the same time.  Take your pick of a lobster roll supper or my perennial fave, the Conquerall Bank Planked Halibut Supper!  Check out my previous posts about the planked halibut supper if you are curious.

'Down home', usual round up of breakfasts.  Broad Cove/Vogler's Cove is a busy spot this weekend, hosting a champagne brunch one day and a baked bean and ham supper the next day.

The Maitland Spring Tea on Saturday is always yummy (possibly the best orange pekoe tea you'll ever drink), well worth checking out.
