July 11, 2015. Western Head, N.S. Sand Dollar Beach.

Every day has been a good day at Western Head.  Today is no exception.  This morning, the four girls made pancakes and bacon and we sat together at the table for brunch.  Everyone except Ken and I wore pajamas.   Last night,  they made their decision sitting around the fire and Ken and I had already retreated to our bedroom, so we missed the pajama routine.   But Ken and I would not have come downstairs in our night attire anyway.  We sleep in inelegant night shirts!!

After brunch, everyone drove to what we call the Sand Dollar Beach.   Every time we go there we have found sand dollars, thus the name.  The beach is in South West Port Mouton and is mostly without people so you can walk the mile of this pristine beach all by yourself.  The girls spend time running in and out of the water, but they don't stay long in the frigid water.  It is a beautiful spot.  They all fit into Randy and Gabe's car as Ken and I along with Dave and Irene stayed home.  All the girls returned with a bag of sand dollars, now drying on the picnic table.

On the way home they stopped for fish and chips at the Seascape, perhaps the best in Nova Scotia.  Once again, the weather is fine.  Since our relatives have been here, every day the weather has been fine, which is amazing.    Every day has been a happy day.
