    We were away for a basketball tournament this weekend and on a break went to grab some lunch in Bear River. I hadn’t been there in sometime but it is a pretty little place even in winter. This is a picture of a restaurant built on the river, literally.

    We visited Ross Farm Museum today. It’s been a long time since I was there but it’s always fun. It’s a part of the Nova Scotia Museum system and is a working farm similar to how it would have been run years ago. The highlights for me were the horse drawn sleigh ride around the…

    We woke up this morning to the first snow of three season. There wasn’t lots, but just a nice white covering. Lots of time the first snow doesn’t stick around until afternoon, but today it was still here when I went on my lunch time dog walk with Oakley.

  • Office window view

    Early this morning, just as it was starting to get light out, this was the view from my home office window. It always looks nicer when you’re looking out at it rather then out shovelling it.

  • Public gardens

    One of the downfalls of working in a distributed company is not getting to hang out with the cool people you work with nearly enough. So when a close co-worker ends up in our area for a long weekend I was glad we were able to spend some time together. I hadn’t seen her in…
