A very short 'January Thaw' came our way on Tuesday here in Nova Scotia.
The temperature was above 0C.....around 4C, so we took full advantage of this.
We started in Dartmouth at Birch Cove Park which is on the shore of Lake Banook.
These first three photos hopefully give you an indication
that the sun was shining in Birch Cove.
On our way for lunch in Eastern Passage (just outside Dartmouth)
we stopped at 'McCormacks Beach Provincial Park'.
There were hundreds of gulls there.
After lunch, we headed to a 'new to us' park that the owner of the restaurant
had told us about......'Flag Pond Coastal Access Park' in Cow Bay.
Cow Bay is directly across Cole Harbour from where we live.
In the photo above you can see MacDonald House to the far right on that grassy hill.
That is where my shop is located.
