nova scotia - spring 2011

I'm sitting in my living room and in front of me is a tray displaying driftwood and seashells.This is only one of various reminders around my house of my first-ever trip to the Maritimes. In May, I spent 9 days in Nova Scotia. My friend and I collected seashells and driftwood, spent time on the Halifax waterfront and at Fisherman's Cove, visited the Halifax Citadel fort and the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, and mowed tall grass at a local Bible camp.The people I met were so friendly and kind. If you've never seen Canada's east coast, I highly recommend it.

Nova Scotia is etched in my memory by way of:
  • driftwood, rocks, choppy water 
  • deep blue, earthtones, grey
  • fog, cold, rain
  • history, old stone, brick 
  • bright paint 
  • authenticity, friendship, peace [Psalm 29:11]

Enjoy a few photos to illustrate the memories...
