Their home in Milton is beautiful, a very old home and large barn on the Mersey River, both built in early 1800's. The lot is large, about an acre, and has a a gentle slope down to the river. Barbara had a small cottage built for Gary for his birthday, down close to the river, with no electricity or plumbing. It is charming. Tonight we sat outside on the porch of the cottage for cocktails. The whole scene was gorgeous, another one of the benefits of living in Nova Scotia.
Their home is full of antiques, but the most impressive is a grouping of small pieces of furniture, that seems at first are children's toys, but they were salesman's samples. They are quite a collection.
It was a lovely evening, good food and good company. Now we hit the road in the morning.
