Cool Rock Formation

This rock formation is at Caroline Beach along the fundy shore. The tide was out and the rain clouds rolling in so I explored the beach , it was cool to observe how the rocks are formed and how you can walk in and around them .

Hall's Harbour Web Cam Images

I looked at the Hall's Harbour web cam late this afternoon and it was beautiful to see the reflections on the water of the Bay .

Like The Fundy Tide I Will Come and Go !!!

Just a personal note to let everyone know that I am moving from the harbour soon. My heart is full of sadness that I have to leave a place that I hold so close to my heart. Baxter's Harbour is a great community full of wonderful , caring people . I have to leave due to personal reasons beyond my control. The good news is  that I am only moving a couple miles away to Bennett's Bay which is still on the Bay of Fundy shore but I will be visiting Baxter's Harbour often . I have many , many pictures of the harbour in my computer with many news ones to come  that I will be posting.The blog is mainly to show the beauty of the Bay of Fundy and the history and nature surrounding it . I enjoy working on the Baxter's Harbour Blog and I will continue to do so . Thanks to everyone who has been there for me during this difficult time. A piece of my heart will always be in the harbour .

Coffee House & Concert Fundraiser, part 2

My son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter came to visit Nova Scotia just in time for the Baxter's Harbour Coffee House and Concert on April 9.


The deserts made for the coffeehouse were very tasty. Sorry, no pictures, they all got eaten too fast!

The musicians gave us a wonderful evening of entertainment.

Mike, Forest and Peter kicked off the show in the old Baxter's Harbour church:


Rosalie Dowling brought down the house with her wonderful voice and passionate delivery. She surely has a great musical career ahead of her!


Mike Milne gave us a sample of his Irish music and the classic provincial anthem, Farewell to Nova Scotia (woops, no photo!).

A surprise guest and former resident of the Harbour brought along his dobro and slide guitar to play for us (with two Peters accompanying):


The Mud Creek Boys closed the show with their great music:


And my granddaughter was enthralled with it all!


Thank you Baxter's Harbour, for showing my visiting family a great time!

Deer At Dusk

This is a sure sign of Spring to see deer coming out to feed in a open field . Ignore the background noise in this video , it was my blinker that I forgot to shut off. I did not want to miss the deer.

Spring Snow

I took these photos March 25  in the harbour of  the fresh fallen snow .

Digby Web Cam Image [March 25]

This is an image from the Digby web cam ,I had to  post  this because it is full tide and the clouds are reflecting on the Bay. We have had snow on and off here most of the day so we are not going to have the clouds reflecting like Digby has.

First Sunset Of Spring !

The sky tonight was amazing as the .sun was setting , looking forward to the Spring sunsets !
