Friday 10th May
Woke again to the smell of bacon cooking and after breakfast
of bacon and blueberry pancakes Janet, Lyndsay and I left for a day out around
Pictou County. Also the laundry maid put out load of washing on their fantastic
pulley operated clothes line which was a joy to behold. We left Lucky and Bruce
at home mowing the grass-about 5 acres worth!

First stop was with Aunt Isobel and Uncle Gerald in New Glasgow
a delightful 84 and 88 year old couple married for 65 years, where the
table groaned and morning tea (scones, bran biscuits, coffee cake) became lunch
!!
Then onto Pictou town to see the Scottish immigrant ship, the ”Hector”, lots of clan
flags and home about 4 pm. A guided tour of Bruce and Lucky’s new
workshop/house was followed by a BBQ dinner then a walk down to the beach
houses on the shore and to the falling down barn.
