Good Bye Nova Scotia

All good things must come to an end - and this time it was our time with friends and family in Nova Scotia.  We feel so blessed to have been able to fit so many visits in during this past month.  


It took my ears a few days to adjust to the fact that we were in Nova Scotia.  Every time they heard the word 'Halifax' or 'Nova Scotia' on the radio etc.  they would perk up and strain to listen to what was happening in Nova Scotia that would make the news?  Or did the people near me know someone from N.S.???  Within a second or two my brain would send a message to my ears, reminding them to relax - we actually were in N.S. so of course the news would often mention cities here.

I didn't always remember to get my camera out, but just thought I would post some pictures of those times my brain was somewhat in gear.  I have tons of lovely memories of our times together in my mind.  We appreciate all of your hospitality and look forward to the next time our path takes us to the East Coast.  

A day in Halifax - all contacts from 'down home'.
A day in Truro - morning coffee - lunch - afternoon coffee - supper - evening coffee
3 of my mother's sister passed away since our last time in Nova Scotia.  We sure miss them, but are thankful that we were able to visit with 2 of our uncles.  Rocky is with Uncle George and cousin Michael in New Glasgow.
 Friends from High School days

Our time there was great, and as can be expected flew by quickly.  We are thankful for the many homes we were able to visit, for the quick catch up chats and the hundreds of cups of coffee everyone so generously shared with us.  Good Bye Nova Scotia - we'll be back Lord willing!!
