Hello #STEEM #Ulog Family!

Today I will take you to Peggy's Cove Lighthouse, and of course show you a little more beauty from the garden. Craig and @marionbowes took us out for ice cream at this quaint little community store called The Whale's Back. Afterwards we went down to the lighthouse. It was a beautiful, balmy, misty evening and hardly any tourists were there, score!

The boys go absolutely crazy every time we go there. We seriously need to start bringing leashes.

_{I kid, I kid...}

They just feel so wild and free out there with the waves and the huge rocks, it's damn near impossible to get them to listen. I'd love to let them be more free on the rocks, but people die there almost every year...so...not an option.
Gotta respect Nature.

It was low tide, and the fog was spectacular, made me feel like I was in Scotland or something...(I've never been there, but it's like #1 on my list of places I want to travel, there and Egypt)

Where is the first place you'd like to travel?

The fog was creating tremendously beautiful water droplets.

I even manned up and took a people watching type photo of a random person, thinking of @winstonalden :)

And that's all she wrote for Peggy's Cove because my camera battery died. That's twice this year it's happened to me out there.

I'm convinced now it's because I'm supposed to just be taking it all in.

Staying in the moment with the sounds, smells and power of the rocks and water. To ground my energy instead of taking photos.

Can you blame me though? I can't help but constantly be clicking when I'm out there, I am just not tired of the village or the landscape at all and I've been here for 4 years.

I Never Tire of Beauty

Beauty, whether it be natural, or crafted by man, always gives me a feeling of meaning and purpose about this life. I see in it, the paradise, the renaissance we could be living in. I spend a fair amount of time just observing beauty. Beautiful sights, smells, sounds, textures, fill my soul in ways I cannot describe.

Would you like to look with me, through my rose coloured glasses?

The pink poppies have started to bloom.

I Love This View

Baby kittens in a basket, and bright red poppies dotting the view behind them.

You can see in the background of that last photo my orange bucket. I filled that puppy up with weeds 3 times today and fed them to the chickens. They loved me :) My body loves me for getting some earthing and exercise. My plants love me for giving them some breathing room. It's a win - win - win - win. I never mind weeding, or doing any chore really, the hardest part for me is just the beginning it. I love to procrastinate. I get some kind of sick joy about leaving things to the last minute.
