More summer

Our last two weeks haven't been as planned or organized but they have been fun. Last week for the first time in years we went to a movie in Bridgewater. We enjoyed our night out, and since we had a gift card we had a free evening of entertainment. We have revisited a couple of our favourite drives along the shore both east and west. Yesterday we had a day trip to the Noel shore in NS. We saw a couple of lighthouses that we didn't know were there, Walton and Burncoat Head. We are really enjoying our visits to the many lighthouses in the province. Who knows how long some of them will be able to survive now that the federal government has announced they will no longer maintain them. Another piece of history lost.

We stopped for a picnic lunch at Cheverie and my little camera got a few pictures which I will share below.

In addition to our staycations we have also done a little bit of work at home...emphasize little. We replaced a few of the board in our deck which had some rot in them, and we have started piling the dreaded wood for the winter. There is still a lot to do but all work and no play does spoil life.
