There is just a moment to make a quick post. In twenty minutes I am going into the village of Baddeck to show Patti around. We will get an ice cream and walk along the main street and look into shops. Perhaps we will also go down by the waterfront and the government wharf.
It's been an eventful few days. On the way home from Fredericton we had the misfortune to hit a deer that was escaping rising water levels. It hit the front of the car and I saw it die along the guard rail. It was quite a shock--and these spare facts don't do the impact of the event justice. Once we got home, it got busy with calls and people, and I was a little sick with a stress headache...but still, I was home. Now I've had a little dinner party for folks from Sydney, which was good fun...sparklers, food, wine, chocolate cake. And the emotional roller coaster continues on...
In any case, though I'm not going to go into details, we're riding it as well as we can. And for now, two girls are going to go stroll in the village. The only choice left: chocolate or vanilla ice cream cones?

the human behind the bean
I'm a 27 year old Canadian woman. I grew up on Cape Breton Island, although my parents and their families are from Quebec and Ohio. Currently I live in Cape Breton, in a small town by the Bras D'Or Lake.
I can make a good soup and tie my own shoes. I've worked as a nanny, a potter's assistant, a shop clerk, and a janitor. I've also worked in a library, and taught computers to seniors. I've travelled to Australia and New Zealand and across Canada by train. I spent two and a half years in university before I left. I like the way the air smells in the Fall.
Since 2002 - this is my blog, a place for me to write about life, what I experience, to share my photography and my writing. I'm glad you're here!
