Tomorrow....

Tomorrow, I am going home. I am so excited, I can't wait. A little nervous too, since it's the first time I've been back since my parents moved out of our house. But we are going to camp, which is pretty much my home in the summer anyway. It will be so nice to relax for a couple of days and see some family and old friends. And then we are going around the trail for our annual camping trip, I am so pumped, I cannot even explain. Woo hoo for cape breton!!!!!
We also just spent an awesome weekend with our friends sally and mark and kristen, relaxing on sally and mark's farm, it was so nice to do that. We loved it, and we love you guys!! for some reason, i didn't take any pictures though, i'll have to next time.
Anyway, i'll leave you with some cool cloud pictures, i love august clouds!!


i love clouds and glooscap.

Barrington

Oh, i am so so far behind in my blogging. the thing is, uploading pictures takes FOREVER, and sometimes it doesn't even work! can someone tell me if i have to or how i can make them smaller files so it will be quicker? it is seriously driving me nutters.
Anyway, a few weekends ago, we headed down to Barrington, which is far away, to have a bit of a reunion with some of the girls from MTA. Kristen just got back from a year in Edinburgh, so it was awesome to see her and the rest of the girls. Poor Joe was a bit outnumbered, but he still had a great time, once he realised that Bev's grandfather had a sailboat! It was such a great weekend, I appreciate these great friends so much.

Beth's grandfather rowed us out to the boat (in the background), I was a little scared, there were a lot of us in that little rowboat! He is so cute!!

The beautiful ocean. Barrington is a very beautiful place. But SO far from anywhere else!

Kristen, Bev and I, chillaxing.


Joe and Sally doin' some corn shuckin'. So yummy.

The view from the cottage. I couldn't figure out why there was a pool, when they were right on the beach, until i tested the ocean water, it was FREEZING! The water at home is so much warmer!!

Bev's grandfather and his lovely ladies, he LOVED having us all there!!

Cool pic. minus the grubby fingerprints!!

Jib, the Bernese Mountain Dog which appeared on our deck one night. This is our dream dog, and she was so furry and loveable, and smelled good too!! Joe kept telling me to smell her breath, 'cause he couldn't believe it smelled so good!

p.s. I LOVE nova scotia. Best place to live in the world, hands down. Except for March-April-May, those months should be skipped.
