Visitors, Friends and Apples



Its nearing the end of September and less than a week away from Brit's 33rd birthday.
Pat and Dave made it down for their vacation. They stayed for a week in PEI then a week here at Greens Point lighthouse cottage. They enjoyed it so much they booked this cottage for their entire two weeks vacation next summer! I stopped by the cottage for a visit and it really is an amazing place. Perched right on the cliff beside the lighthouse overlooking the Bay of Fundy. The sunsets are beautiful and dolphins and whales were spotted while watching the Deer Island Ferry passing by in the distance. We enjoyed some nice meals together and lots of laughs.

Brit, Billy,  George, Melody and I went apple picking st Mackays orchard on Kingston Peninsula. It was a beautiful day and everyone enjoyed the trip while listening to some great bluegrass music on the drive.

The following week we put those fresh picked apples to good use making our traditional apple dumplings and caramel sauce. With the help of our new friend Amy Leblanc, Melody,  George and myself made 85 dumplings. So much fun working together, sharing the experience and making memories.
I also managed to squeeze in some time to make some new friends, spent another afternoon on the trails with Carrie and Jeff where we had so many laughs listening to my new friend tell jokes. We all need friends that make us laugh like that!!!
Next month is my busy month. Brit, Billy and I all celebrate birthdays in October as well as Thanksgiving and Halloween.
I am trying my best to sneak in a mini vacation for myself to reset and reenergize before the Christmas season is upon us.
So that's it for September. Enjoy your Fall everyoneđź’–
