Cross country
My thirteen year old son had his first cross country race for middle school today. He had been practicing and doing well at home. In the race he came in seventh overall and first for his school. Really proud.

Kentville
This is still a fairly new mural which was added to towns during a mural festival. I didn’t notice it until a couple of days ago. I should really take some time to make sure I get a good look at the rest of them s as well.

First date
I’ve taken a lot of pictures of Blomidon but this view is one of my favourites. This is the place my wife and I had our first date 20 years ago. Every time I walk through here I’m so thankful for that night and our lives since.

Rainy day coffee
Today has been a rainy dreary kind of day. Took a bit of time to sit by the window listening to the rain with a good coffee.

Step into the harbour
My oldest son turned 13 today. Part of his day involved going into Halifax for some treats which we ate on the waterfront. The weather was rainy and a bit gloomy so it made the area much quieter then usual. These steps are still pretty new and a cool public attraction. It was nice to…
