It’s been a fabulous week of weather for our first week of summer But a busy week of work for my sweetie. He works so hard and at the end of a busy week it’s so nice to go for a ride on his bike. We have some very picturesque places in Nova Scotia. Tonight’s ride took him to Lunenburg.
It was PERFECT, and just what he needed!
Have a great weekend!
It’s that time of year! Schools almost out for the summer and it’s the last weekend of June and that means that this Saturday is the Annual Community Fun Day at Shipyard’s Landing!
Bring your kids, your neighbour’s kids, the grandkids, your friend’s kids…it’s a FREE event ( EVERYTHING FREE) and LOTS and LOTS of Fun for the family! A wonderful way to spend Saturday afternoon. TIME: 1-4pm Shipyard’s Landing in Bridgewater.
See you there!
Officially!! Today is the longest day of the year with over 15 hours of daylight!
Bring it on!!!! ( The last couple days have been gorgeous)
What a beauty of a day along the South Shore! We had to get out and enjoy it. It helped that we had friends visiting from New Brunswick that used to live here 27 years ago!
Our friends had a great day seeing some familiar spots and we had fun being tour guides.
The middle of June and that means the early berries are ready!
The first taste of strawberry season is here.
So I had to whip up a batch of biscuits.
For a taste of Strawberry Shortcake! Delicious!!
And good news…the Sun is back!!! After what seems forever of cool, windy, cloudy, rainy days, the Sun is back and it’s the weekend! Have a good one 😀
Food truck that is! The Best Little Oarhouse in Nova Scotia.
This is opening week for this new place and we’ve been wanting to check it out!
On a nice evening it’s just a nice little walk to get there, but it’s been so cool and windy that James & I decided that we were just gonna drive down and bring our food home.
There was little bit of a wait, after all it’s opening week. BUT, it was so worth it. The food is delicious! James had the Dude Burger and of course I had to try the fish & chips. Delicious home cut fries and a light batter…so good!
James enjoying his Rugged Dude Burger lol
They have a good selection
Check it out if you get chance! We will definitely be trying out more items on the menu this summer!
BRRR!!!! I have been freezing for days! This is certainly not June weather and with the “official day” of summer around the corner temperatures have been at least 10 degrees below normal. June evenings are usually wonderful for being outside BUT all I feel like doing is curling up with a blanket.
David and I did go to the beach yesterday afternoon, BUT it is far from beach weather. Gee, I remember “skipping “school and heading to the beach to swim and tan “back in the day” …. Where is our summer weather? Please warm up soon!!!
The beach was beautiful as usual…it ALWAYS is…BUT it’s not SUMMER TIME beach weather!
The last two Summer seasons I did a blog post about the best fish & chips places in Nova Scotia ( at least the local ones that we went to).This summer I thought I would switch it up to include all kinds of local food…East Coast food!
From fish cakes to food trucks to fish & chips to maybe even baked bean and salad suppers haha, we’ll see about that one. So starting now until the end of Summer when we are out and about and have chance to stop at interesting places, I’ll be sure to order something fun, East Coast style, and at the end of August, I’ll show you some of my favourites!
Here’s one to start:
Fishcakes & Salad at the Kiwi Cafe In Chester…delicious! ( and no matter what you order it come with a piece of kiwi)
Why not have your own fun? Order something different you haven’t tried…something very East Coast Style!
Enjoy the weekend!
Wow! This came as a shocker! Earlier this week I posted about Canada AM being “Live” in Lunenburg for Jeff Hucheson’s last remote broadcast before his retirement. Well, yesterday it was announced that today, June 3, is Canada AM’s LAST broadcast!! The show has been cancelled after 43 seasons! Wow!!! What a shock!
When I think back about Canada AM, I think of Norm Perry. Do you remember this face?
Jeff Hucheson will start his retirement as planned and Marci Ien and Beverly Thomson will stay will Bell Media.
I am sure gonna miss this regular part of my morning! It has been a part of East Coast and Canadian culture.
Just what I needed! A mid week adventure with a friend! Yesterday, we went to Chester and browsed some shops, had lunch at a great little cafe, and then a sweet treat in Mahone Bay on the way home. Lots of stories and laughs…so much fun ALWAYS!
Can you tell my friend is home to stay? Great times with Wanda 😀 So glad you and Curt are HOME ❤
