July 30, 2017. Western Head, Nova Scotia. An Excursion.

The road is familiar but still beautiful, the shore road from Liverpool to Bridgewater.    For most of the way, we drove beside the ocean with the never ending scenes of rock and water,  and of course the lovely homes we saw along the edge of the water.  Then we gradually turn to drive along the Lahave River.  Definitely, it is my favorite drive and the first time this year.  I must have driven that route a hundred times, but it never gets old, especially when nephew Norm is driving.

First we stopped to see the information on Coffin Island.  Next was Beach Meadows.  We explored right to the end of Ragged Harbor, that raw and isolated spot.  We still see homes along the shore.  Next stop was Port Medway for a lunch of lobster sandwiches with an ice cream for Ken, followed by a stop at the pottery at La Have.  The potters work is beautiful.  Ken wants to buy one of his big pots but I think they are too big for our little home.  The last stop on our excursion was the bakery and craft shop.  We shared a date square.

Then it was home straight along the highway.  The weather was glorious on our excursion.  We enjoyed our company and our explorations.  Our excursion today was splendid.
