Nova Scotia 7 - Hot Day

On our trip to Nova Scotia we planned on cooling down from the heat of South Carolina. Wrong! The heat (and the hurricane) went with us. It was 90 degrees plus the whole time we were there. We spent a lot of time outside.
In this picture is Kirby, Tanya, Jeff (Rick's brother), Joan (Jeff's wife) and Rick. I am missing because I took the picture. This was a hot afternoon and we decided to eat lunch outside. We are enjoying the most wonderful in the world Lunenburg Sausage! I love that stuff and tried so hard to find a way to take some home with us but it just didn't work....no way to do it especially with customs - even if we hadn't have been dealing with raw meat!

So, anyway, we had never met Jeff and Joan before - in person- so this was a real treat for us! They were as wonderful as we thought they would be.
In order to earn their lunch Rick and Kirby had to clean the dinghy and get it ready for winter storage. They did a good job so we let them eat.

Then to beat the heat we all headed down to the basement. Rick and Tanya resisted and screamed and yelled but we didn't care what the basement looked like - we wanted cool. (we do expect the basement to be completely remodeled and decorated by next visit)



And of course, being Pub Lover's we had to make the trip to Lunenburg to go to the Knot Pub. We had been there 3 years ago and never forgot it. How could you forget a pub as charming as this. Not only did we have good ale but we had hamburgers made from the famous Lunenburg Sausage!


And this picture - well, what can I say? We don't see sights like this in our cozy little developments with all the rules to keep the neighborhoods oh, so perfect. I loved it and it only seemed appropriate that it be in Black & White.

  1. Get the dinghy ready for winter storage? Holy crap, when exactly does winter start in Nova Scotia?
