Starting April Scratched


Placed in a beautiful dish


Harry arrived on April Fool's Day


A sink hole appeared in our driveway over the culvert.


The black ducks are back
and the beaver too.
Everyone is busying themselves with springtime activities
despite the freezing cold!


Drove to Oak Island for the Fibre Art Retreat.
Funny how some lakes are still frozen and others clear.
An eagle kept an eye on me from up above.


Some of us visited Mahone Bay and it's famous view of the three churches.


Weavers, spinners, quilters, tatters, lace makers and knitters
gathered at round tables working and chatting.

  5. Wonderful... there is so much mud in the driveway all of a sudden, that I'm afraid I might sink even without a sinkhole! Hope that got solved easily. Glad to see the new scratchings.

    Ha. I think you'll appreciate my robot word today - bbeastie!
