well I think this boat needs a hair cut ... not used much, I guess !!!
for the last 6 months I have been a friend with www.encompassingdesigns.com
some of you don't know that I (Yvonne) am a "hooker", and I am looking forward to getting back to my pleasure !!!
this is Christine Little in her beautiful retail store, full of hooked rugs, life rugs, cat's with hat's rugs, local history rugs, Christine has designed most of the patterns, her friends the rest ... today's visit was so fantastic for me .. I have ordered a kit entitled "Tri-Relaxing" which was named by Gregg (husband),
sailor, racer, boat builder ... we hope to have you aboard soon !!!
Christine's son, Shane does all the dying of the fabric, Shane has published a few books on the "cook book" of dyeing ... this business is above all others .. Congratulations !!! ...
on our touring we came across a Beat Breast Cancer, fund raiser ...this Greenhouse, wanted 1,000 bras, and they got it and donated the same in cash ... what a way to stop traffic ...
next was the LaHave Cable Ferry, just leaving as we parked the car .. we walked the beach there and found some sea glass, and lots of live mussels, that we could harvest, it was low tide .. there was no warning signs of Red Tide, but ...
a boardwalk, fund raiser, never seen this before, we set out looking for another sand beach, which are hard to find in this coast of Nova Scotia, turn right at the white church, then left at the red mail box, and around the cove to the mermaid on the front lawn of the first blue house on the right and go for 5 minutes then you are there .... and we arrived !!
what a fascinating beach, right on the ocean ..
we are walking at low tide, the sky reflecting on the beach
OMG, this is Canada ... we Canadians should come explore Nova Scotia, and the rest of Canada ...
the skipper won't let me bring any more rocks aboard, so now I have to take pictures .. this is a reflection of rocks and sailboats, with mast light's on ..
this beach is good for the surfers
next we went to the Ovens Natural Park, and gold panning ...
these are the crushing stones, from the first Chilean Mill during the Gold Rush of 1861
heading down the first cave
down the cave and looking out to see, this one is at low tide and not much water ...
the skipper at the top of the steps, out of the cave
this is one of the inlets into the caves, also used by rum runners
one of the look out points
about 10 caves, so close to Lunenburg Harbour
a walk way down to the cave
down here we heard the thunder of the waves hitting the back wall and bouncing back
looking out to sea
the rock formation and colour on the sides was so fascinating, and the water was so clear ... the first we have seen in N.S.
each inlet is a cave ... with falling rocks
another cave ..
a man made steps to get to the caves
Blue Rocks .. sun setting .. get back to the boat before dark
Nova Scotia is so beautiful ... Ontario come and visit our Country !!!!!!
