Yesterday was a long and exhausting day but we had so much fun and made so many unforgettable memories. When I woke up this morning in Scotia Pine Campground in Truro, Nova Scotia, I had to pinch myself and make sure I wasn’t dreaming. I’ve always wanted to see Nova Scotia and I truly never thought it would happen, but here I am and it is real. (smiling really big) It was freezing cold this morning as the thermometer read a mere 43 degrees but we had to get out of bed and get the ball rollin’. We made our way over to the “pay showers” and began our morning routine. (still can’t believe I have to pay to take a shower) By this time, we all pretty much had the schedule down pat. It may ... read more

We awoke this morning in St. Martins, New Brunswick to a cool and foggy day. It was 62 degrees at 8:00 am and little did we know that the mercury would rise no higher today. Tim and Lynn really wanted to see the sunrise here so Tim set his phone alarm to go off at 5:20 am. He actually got up three different times waiting and watching for the sun but the fog was just too dense so they didn’t get to see it. There were only two showers on each side so we girls had to rotate in and out but we all eventually had our turn. After her shower, Heidi put on a hot pot of coffee while Jason gathered all the trash, they are really getting into this camping thing ! We were ... read more

I am so happy to report that our first night with a party of six went great ! Everyone slept well and they even woke up in a good mood. It’s seems as though they must have brought some of that good ole’ Georgia sunshine with them up here to Maine. When we got up this morning those golden rays were just a shinin’ through the windows and we couldn’t be more happy ! After a week of really crappy weather, it finally looked like we were going to be able to get out and do some stuff without having to worry about getting all wet. Luckily, Tim, Jon and I survived the first week without catching pneumonia and now at least Jon was going to have a couple of nice days to enjoy. We gathered ... read more

Well heck, you would think by now we would be getting used to all this crazy cold New England weather but when you wake up on July 2nd and it’s so cold you can see your breathe, that’s just insane !! We decided last night that we were going to sleep in this morning so we didn’t even set the alarm on Tim’s phone. Somewhere around 11:00 am we rolled on out of bed to another rainy day. The thermometer on the window said it was 53 degrees and I believe it ! We actually had to cut the heat on for a bit because as we were talking we could see our breathe in the air ! I really needed to make a trip inside and re-stock on a few things before the rest of ... read more

We awoke this morning in beautiful Cape Ann, Massachusetts. We were told that it was a popular tourist town with scenic coastlines, beautiful beaches and elegant restaurants that serve some of the world’s finest seafood. We even heard that the old movie "The Perfect Storm" and the new movie "The Proposal" were filmed here. Of course, we would have to take everyone’s word for it because all we could see were the deep dark clouds hovering over us and the smoky fog from the bay. It seems as though the rain is following us along our journey through The New England states and it’s really starting to get on my nerves ! I know I complain about the Georgia heat sometimes during our humid summers but boy what would I give to see a little piece ... read more
