Hey, Harper! Is It Too Early to Plan Summer?

Nope! One sniff of warmth and I am off planning the next four months! Really! It's been four months since Christmas. Now is the time!

What to do, what to do with all that SUMMER? (This could almost be Plage St. Pierre, non?)

This year I am working different hours than I have the past 20 years, so I am filled with summer desires. I have almost all of my mornings free; a perfect time to paddle board. A couple of years ago I bought a Blackfin board. I really really like it! And right now is a great time to buy as they are on sale!

Summer totally begins with a bonfire on the beach to celebrate the summer solstice, June 21st. Though we may have had a feed or two of lobster by then, a pot of mussels over the fire is always deeeee-lightful!

As soon as the lamprey eels finish migrating through the Margaree River a leisurely tube float will consume a day or two.

And then all the adventures far and wide can begin!

Go clamming and make yourself a wonderful Spaghetti Vongole!

Or try out a new to you lobster pasta.

Go whale watching with Captain Mark!

Enjoy the sunshine and a smash burger with a pint at an organic brewery -Big Spruce.

And then stretch your legs at Egypt Falls.

Every year I take a day to travel the Cabot Trail, stopping in at Salty Rose's for lunch and shopping; post swimming.

But most of all I look forward to summer drinks, mostly French 75's, with homemade lemon syrup! (Lemon syrup replaces the simple syrup and lemon juice) Yum.

What are you dreaming of enjoying once the final whisps of winter are blown away?
