Behold adorable kittens. My daughter is fostering three kittens for 6 to 8 weeks. Needless to say she is over the moon. Cuteness overload.😻 Caramel, Cider, and Maple

My friend and I took the boat on his lake to collect some water quality data. It was a good day to be out in nature

I was on a little island in the middle of the harbour. It is now a historic park.

A beautiful weekend in Nova Scotia. I got out in the boat which was lovely. Lots of sailboat races. There were mackerel running, sailboat races, and lots of warm sunshine.

A homemade card is one of my favorite things about my birthday. My oldest made this for me and I really like it. Might be time to start doing yoga or at least some stretching 😜

My birthday occurred recently (I tried to stop it but that is an impossible task). My youngest gave me this sticker. It makes me smile 😊

Saturday and Sadie says let me go out on the deck. Unfortunately Sadie was caught up on the railing so there will be no more deck time today 😻

I have one high bush blueberry plant. This is what I got. To say I am excited is an understatement. It does not take much for me.

A beautiful morning in Nova Scotia. The water is very high as it is touching the underside of the wharf. Such a different summer than last year when we had a drought. Happy Wednesday 😁

Explored the 100 Islands off the coast of Nova Scotia. Beautiful white-sand beaches and some of the most beautiful sunrises you could imagine.

Took my daughter and her best friend tubing. I was wondering how a 50 HP motor would do and it performed beautifully. Lots of fun for everyone 😉

My cat Izzy loves to lay on the floor like this. Don't be fooled, though, her belly is strictly off limits 😻
