HOW TO NAVIGATE THIS BLOG:


We enjoy sharing our lifestyle with our family, friends, and others. So COME ON OUT and "let's get on with it". You only have an opportunity to live once. For those of you who do not choose to get away, feel free to travel vicariously via this blog.

This is primarily a blog of photographs, of our travels. Our blogging time is limited by our activities, so we figure a photograph is worth a thousand words. You may click on the photos to enlarge them.

There is only one Post per page. You can access earlier posts by clicking on the link below and to the right, or by going to the "archive" which is found below the current post.

The "Relevant Links" will take you to sites showing our current location, the weather conditions that we are experiencing, some of our favorite ports of call, and information related to our boat. When using the SPOT link, to see where we are, click on "satellite" tab to get a photo of the area (takes a while to load).

If you must have more then you may also follow the links to our "Earlier Blogs".

Enjoy

A Day In Canso, Nova Scotia

Sunday, September 2nd, 2012

A brand new "Irish Towner" awaits her finishing touches:



 
Picking blueberries and blackberries in an abandoned hilltop cemetery:



In nearly every coastal town of the Canadian Maritimes a church is found on the highest ground above the harbour:


Looking down over Canso Marina and Grassy Key in the background:


Now that lobster season is over the new "Irish Towner" taken out for a family fishing trip on this bright sunny warm day:


The skipper checking out his new boat and electronics:


A good time is had by all:
 


Hurricane Leslie is on the way - perhaps we should heed this warning:
 


A cod is caught and kept just long enough for photos and then returned to the sea since the fishery is no longer open:


Want to kiss the cod?
 

 
Kite fishing for tuna:

Just hanging out while waiting for a tuna hit:
