Cape Breton Highlands National Park


We drove into the Park


What a beautiful corner of the world.


with rocky outcrops


roads that clung to mountainsides


where the ocean shimmered between mountains that dipped towards the shore.


The mountains were still green on that trip


but we have to go back again


and then the colours will be spectacular


I am told they always are


Way too many photos
I know


but every line of coast
or dip of a mountain


or strip of road
caught between ocean and mountain


could start a line of stitch.
