Home & Shrubbery

The first in what I hope will be a recurring series on the 'ole blog. 


I'm loving all the spring time blossoms, and turns out....so do a lot of home owners in the area. 


Big or small, modest or fancy, seems like everyone has at least one flowering shrub in their yard. Long live Spring!

Community Outreach

A common scene at the local skate park, cops talking to the kids.  Hopefully this is just a 'stern talking to' and not getting a summons for not wearing a helmet.

I'd rather see kids out there being active, helmet or no helmet...instead of being indoors. 

Rosy Bay Sunset

Shot last Wednesday, what a sunset!

Rose Bay, NS

Black helicopters over Loonieburg?

Nah, this one was more of a dull grey....what's with all the choppahs?....and how do I get to it?

What's on this weekend? Eggs 'n' Bacon galore! MAPLE EVERYTHING SUPPER! First South Variety Supper!!!

Breakfasts on both sides of the river, as well as one out on the Aspotogan Peninsula, take yer pick!


Maple lovers will surely enjoy the 29th Annual Maple Syrup Supper!  Leave some room for the First South Variety Supper on Sunday.  Be prepared for a long wait to get in, it is often 30-45 minutes.  I suggest buying  your ticket and then going for a drive, walk, coffee.  Or, sit in the church pews and participate in the sing-a-long.
