Natural Beauty from St. Martins on the Bay of Fundy















... as seen from our windows up on the bluff,  

..  ever changing... ever awe inspiring...
there in the wide open sky and that amazing body of water...

Believe me when I say......   It takes my breath away...

It takes my breath away too Gwen, even if I were seeing it virtually.

Oh yes... beautiful! I hope the hurricane misses you completely, unfortunately, its headed straight my way.
I'm in only briefly to check email and a wee look at blogs before I head outside again to collect anything that could blow. Strange, as its such a beautiful, calm, warm and sunny day. I'm thinking how surprised people must have been years ago before weather forecasts- I can;t imagine waking up one morning to a hurricane and not know it was coming... yikes! At least I have a few days to prepare.

Oh my, short novel, back out to work... blessings to you in your amazing landscape.

Beautiful photos Gwen; I've never been that far up the northeast coast, but it looks like that may have to change one of these days... thanks for the incitation to travel...

Hopefully Irene will have spent all her wrath by the time she gets up your way... but she could make for some dramatic photos...

These photos are so lovely. They eloquently capture the changing faces of the world from your doorstep. I don't know how you can stand to ever leave this wondrous place. Thanks again for meeting with us on Friday. Your tour recommendations were perfect. We had a terrific afternoon.

Hi Gwen ... these pics are totally awesome ... you are so blessed with an incredible view ... it really is breath-taking!

Ain't our land grand?!!!

New Brunswick is one province I've yet to see ... and P.E.I ... and Newfoundland/Labrador ... did the Cabot Trail with my borther & SIL years back ... and parts of Nova Scotia ... but would love to see this all firt hand.

Northern Ontario is spectacular in it's awesomeness ... the north shore of Lake Superior particurlarly is incredible ... fond memories of camping there in my youth.

Hi Marie, thanks for dropping by..don't worry about typos .. I have my share... ahhh to travel .. that is something I have not had the opportunity to do.. John and I really hope to in the future.

Thank you Yvette and BumbleVee... nature does satisfy.

Hi Sharmon, you are absolutely right.. a sense of peace indeed.. and wonder.. from the first moment of discovering St. Martins, I felt as if I was being lifted into the clouds...
