Sunny Spring Sunday (Sx3)


Here in Halifax signs of spring are only just beginning, but in in Blomidon Nova Scotia spring has sprung. This is where hubby and I spent a very peaceful Sunday. We talked, explored, listened to the birds, drove up to the cape where we were going to take a stroll on the ocean floor but discovered the stairway leading down to the shore had washed out during the winter months -- the tides and ice of a harsh winter have taken its toll. I took some photos on the new camera of the breathtaking views, hoping they will turn out just as lovely as the shots above that I took with the little Fuji. Hubby and I are planning another trip back soon to see all the apple trees in blossom. I can hardly wait for sights, smells, and sounds (Sx3 again).

nice drive in the country + a sunny spring day + wonderful company = one happy jack!

Tell me all about your weekend?

we finished up the outfit shopping for the weekend and had dinner at P.F. Changs. It was a lovely spring day and there were hordes at the mall

WackyMummy - I was just down in your area a few weeks ago but there was still a little ice around the shore. I plan to head back to the south shore in a couple weeks.

Amber - Apple blossoms do smell so nice a sweet. I love when the trees start to shed the flowers, it's like it's raining white petals.

Gal Friday - I did get my beach day :)

Shadow - Finally!!!

Movie - Thanks, looking forward to more sunny weekend drive in the country.

Kaye - PF Changs, sounds like Chinese food? I love spring shopping too.

Larry - Hugs right back at ya!
