A happy picture!

I'm feeling a lot down, so I've searched through my pictures for a nice happy picture. Last weekend we were traveling down the road when the truck in front of us stopped, then we saw this lovely creature crossing the road then wandered into someones yard and started to eat their hostas. I do not have a fancy camera so this is very close, out of the car window, you could see the fuzz on the antlers.
Now to the reason I'm so down........if it soon doesn't stop raining we'll have to build an ark, this is the rainiest summer we've ever had and with below normal temperatures too. We haven't seen the sun for a week and that was one day last weekend and before that it was another week. I've only had shorts on about 5 times!!!!!booohoooo! Please send summer to Nova Scotia!

Relaxing Sunday!


Yesterday afternoon Ethan, Carman and myself went into my parents cabin on the river. There was a nice breeze, so there were no flies, and it wasn't too warm. My Dad made this log cabin, we all helped to peel the logs, it was all done without the luxury of power. My parents were there along with my brother and his family. This is a shot of Etan out in the kayak. The river was so calm, usually it is quite fast flowing by.

Happy Birthday Canada!

Today is Canada's 142nd Birthday!
We chose to stay home and do nothing, nothing, nothing. The weather was drizzlie so it was a good indoor tv kind of a day.
We just heard some fireworks off in the distance. Yippie!!
