THE PROVINCE OF NOVA SCOTIA

IN NOVA SCOTIA, YOU ARE NEVER FAR FROM THE OCEAN.

THE BAY OF FUNDY IS ONLY 12 TO 15 MILES FROM ME.

WITHIN ONE MILES OF WHERE I LIVE, THERE IS FOUR RIVERS OR BROOKS.

ONE OF THESE IS THE ANNAPOLIS RIVER. THIS IS THE BIGGEST OF THESE FOUR.

YOU MAY CATCH MOST ANYTHING IN THIS RIVER.

 

ABOUT 1/2 MILE FROM ME, ON THE EAST SIDE, IS THE

ROUND HILL RIVER.

THERE IS SALMON AND TROUT TO BE CATCH IN THIS RIVER.

THEN ABOUT 1/2 MILE FROM ME ON THE WEST SIDE IS ANOTHER SMALLER RIVER.

ALL OF THE LOCAL PEOPLES CALLED THIS ONE TUPPER BROOK.

THERE IS TROUT IN THIS BROOK.

THEN THE LAST BROOK, IS ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF ME, ABOUT 100 FEET FROM MY HOUSE.

THERE IS NO FISH IN THIS BROOK.

I AM TOLD, THAT UP TILL 40 YEARS AGO, THERE WAS TROUT IN THIS BROOK.

MOST SUMMER NOW, IT DRY UP. SO IF THERE WAS FISH, THEY WOULD DIE, ANYWHERE.

THIS BROOK FLOW THROUGH MY LANDS.

IF YOU ENJOY WALKING ALONG THE BEACH, WE HAVE MANY FOR TO GO TO.

I SOMETIMES WILL GO TO THE BAY OF FUNDY AND WALK ALONG THE BEACH

AND SEE WHAT THE TIDE HAD WASH IN.

YOU NEVER KNOW, WHAT YOU MIGHT FIND.

THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING TO DO OR SEE IN NOVA SCOTIA.

 

 

ABOUT WHERE I LIVE

I LIVE HIGH ATOP, WHAT WE CALLED THE SOUTH MOUNTAIN. I CAN LOOK DOWN AND SEE THE WHOLE VALLEY BELOW ME. IT A VERY NICE VIEW.

SOME PEOPLE TELL ME I GOT A MILLON DOLLARS VIEW. THERE WILL BE PICTURES AT SOME POINT.

IT IS COMMON FOR ME TO LOOK OUT MY HOUSE WINDOW AND SEE MANY KINDS OF WILD ANIMALS. LAST YEAR (05) I HAD THE BLACK BEAR, WALK DOWN MY DRIVEWAY, AND WENT IN THE WOODS BEHIND MY HOUSE.

 

ONE MORNING HAD 7 COYOTES RUNNING AROUND ON MY FRONT LAWN.

ONE DAY THERE WAS A BOBCAT BEHIND MY HOUSE EATING SOMETHING, NOT SURE WHAT. ANOTHER EARLY MORNING THERE WAS A BOBCAT IN MY DRIVEWAY.

HAD A SKUNK ON MY DOORSTEP ONE DAY, I DID NOT LET HIM IN.

USED TO BE ALOT OF DEER AROUND HERE, BUT NOW THERE NOT TO MANY.

I NEVER KNOW WHAT I MIGHT SEE WHEN I LOOKED OUT MY HOUSE WINDOW!!!
