In our front-yard, we have all kinds of birds and squirrels visiting the feeder. One day, a pair of Northern Cardinals started coming by. Cardinals are rare in our neighborhood, where Blue Jays are more common. Once they found the feeder, they began to show up at the same time and place every day. The […]
I went with Sam to the Ski Martock to pick up his uniform. The resort was open, but only one slope was operational. The beginner area wasn’t ready yet, and the instructors won’t start their work until school resumes in the second week of January. On our way back, we stopped by a nearby trail, […]
In just one night, 30 cm of snow has blanketed the landscape. With the temperature remaining low, it looks like this year will bring a true white Christmas, unlike other years when the snow would quickly melt the next day. By the afternoon, glimpses of blue sky peeked through, and the Burgundy Dream B&B revealed […]

The final concert was in Halifax, and my partner came to watch! It was my first time on a concert tour, and the experience […]
The latter half of October flew by like an arrow. There were days when it suddenly warmed up, making it feel as though summer had returned, but the days were unmistakably getting shorter, and the fiery red sunsets came earlier and earlier. October ends with Halloween. In my neighborhood, no children come by, so it’s […]
Today, the temperature soared to a surprising 19 degrees, making it feel like summer! It was the perfect weather for dismantling the deck by the water as the season comes to a close. Although the water was freezing at first, I soon got used to it and enjoyed a refreshing swim afterward. What a wonderful […]
I hiked 15 kilo meters at Cape Split Trailhead, enjoying a stunning new trail that featured scenic lookouts. We took the new trail out and returned via the old one. The autumn colors along the trail were truly breath taking. The hike to the tip of the peninsula took about two hours, and although the […]
