Walk With Me In Nova Scotia - Day 5

I went on a beautiful walk today...

Farthest I've gone yet! There won't be as much commentary because it's movie night and our family is watching "Karate Kid" the one from 1984 hahaha. I can get my boys to watch anything from my childhood and they always love it. I guess movies were pretty good in the 80's. I used to bloody hate the movies my parents would try and get me to watch from their childhoods, maybe it's because they were black and white? Okay, without further ado...here's the pics from my walk today...

Someone called my name from a balcony, I look over and it's a friend, never knew where they lived until today, Lisa and her 17 year old kitty!

And my favourite photo of the day for last...

BACK

I'd like to go on a walk in your neighbourhood too, so if you get out there for one, take a few pics, and post about your walk using the tag "walkwithme". I'll check the tag regularly to upvote and give encouragement. Let's get fresh air and fitness together!

Sort:  

Very good @lyndsaybowes.

Your commitment is inspiring. I am very happy to see it (another McDonalds coupon just found the trash...dont get too cocky though, still a big pile left).

"Fresh air and fitness"...what a wonderful motto. I love it....this might inspire me to get off my rear end join the walkwithme movement (is it a movement yet? When does something become a movement? Is it based upon time or the number of people or how loud people scream? Questions for another day).

I love the tabby...cats are my fav...I had two tabbys over the years...typical red heads, into everything.

Once again, thanks for your posts.

By the way, I have a friend in PA who just was approved for the site...I will be explaining the ins and outs of this site to her today...I will have her check out the posts...I know she likes to walk...I might have her join in with you.

Ooh right on!! I'm so happy you have a friend who has joined the Steem blockchain, that's epic! Yeah, please go out there in the world, take some pics, meet some neighbours, and some animal friends, I would love to see that!

We're gonna burn those coupons soon, you'll see! We'll have a nice ol' bonfire.

I will save them up for you...you are going to need a bonfire where you live. Beautiful country but cold....fall is coming....

I live in Florida for a reason...when the temp drops below 60, I am squawking like that chicken you mentioned in the other post.

Homey doesnt do the cold.....kind of embarrassing at the nude beach when it is cold but that is another story entirely. :)

My upvote just gave your payout an even number. That's the coolest thing I've done all day!

Just started walking dog-face around the neighborhood, it's definitely not as scenic, but the hills are going to help me get into better shape :D

What kind of camera are you using? Love the shots!

Omg it's beeeeeeeeeeauuuutiful!! I LOVE those mountains in the background WOW!! If you ask me, everywhere is beautiful, at least everywhere I've travelled so far in life. Thanks for showing me your new place! I'm using a canon T2i :)

Take me for another walk someday soon!

I guess what I'm really saying is I don't know what exactly to photograph... Probably would create an awkward situation to photograph everyone's home, especially in a heavily armed part of the nation XD

I really haven't been on any hikes around here, that's something I'll have to aspire to!

Anything you would take a pic of would be new to me! xo Can't wait!

Neat to see a few sailboats still in the water. I bet the harbors will be emptying out soon.

What's the temperature up there this time of year?

It's still summer temperatures here Winston, and will be until the end of October, our area of Nova Scotia has a very prolonged summer :) :) And there are some parts where the boats never leave the water, the lobster fishermen work all year around <3 <3 <3

I figured the work-boats were probably in year-round. It was the sailboats that surprised me. Glad to hear it's warmer up there than expected. Us Americans assume that it's just frozen tundra as soon as you cross the border, eh, don't you know?

Hhaa oooh yeah I understand. We're lucky because we are coastal and south. A lot of places in Canada are already experiencing frost and the like.

I'm sure the sailboats will be starting to come out soon, I will keep you posted for sure!

Thanks for the walk around your great looking neighbourhood. The photo below is of my favorite beach - Ramsgate Beach just down the road from where I stay. I love taking walks on the beach and to the whale viewing deck on the hill above.

Wowww!! What a treat for the eyes!! :) Just insanely gorgeous xoxo Thank you very much for sharing!

You live in a very scenic neighbourhood. Glad the shin pain is gone. Must have been the shoes...Enjoy the Karate Kid. We like that one too.

Yes, it has to be the shoes for sure, thanks for coming along again @CeciCastor! :) :) :) And glad you know the flick. It's always great to watch classics with our kids hey?

As long as there is lots of popcorn and a cosy chair...

You certainly live in lovely surroundings... thanks for sharing your walk! I might take you up on their neighborhood walk idea, although it's not presenting very well at the moment, as we are in the middle of a prolonged drought... which is very strange for the "rainy Northwest."

But it's a really nice idea for a "positive post," so I like that!

Cool DenmarkGuy, I would absolutely love to see your area, yes even with a drought, the world is a beautiful place! <3 <3 <3

It looks amazing there, so many lovely views!!

Thank you very much for checking it out @shaunf! :) :)

Yes, is pretty cute hahahaa, I'm glad you enjoyed the photos @malos10!

It's like a picture postcard everywhere you LoOk !!!

Thank you, St. Margaret's Bay, Nova Scotia is a magical place that's for sure! :)

Great Idea, this walkabout. I generally take my dog with me, I'll have to take some pics enroute. Beautiful photos.

Thank you very much for seeing my journey, and I would love to witness yours as well, please use the tag 'walkwithme' and I'll be sure to see it! :) :) :) <3 <3
