What a lovely sight..The full moon reflected on the ocean.. It is without any doubt the most amazing part of living here. I just love it.. I was up about 3:30 this morning..and again was dazzled with a site of the moon. This time as the sun was rising in the east..the moon was still well up in the western sky..and as the sky turned a pale grayish shade of pink..the moon was glowing like a giant opal. What a sight..It was beautiful.
Today the sun is out it is still a bit chilly but I think it will warm up enough for the beach this afternoon. Tonight heading to the Triangle Club in C'town..to party a bit with Julie. Looking forward to it..we always manage to have a few laughs..actually we have a lot of laughs.
This morning I hope to have a visit with Eddy Quinn..who said he would stop in for a bit. If he doesn't show his face before 10:30 I am heading into Souris to do a bit of laundry. I can't wait to get my washing machine..I don't mind going to the Laundromat..but I can find better things to do with my time. So this summer I got my grill which I had wanted for about 15 years.. I will put in my patio which I have wanted for 5 years..I will hopefully build the deck on the West side of the house..and I WILL GET A WASHING MACHINE.. I had to check with Donnie about how to winterize them ..but it's pretty easy..so there you go. No more excuses.. : )
WOMAN POWER..at work..
I wish you all a lovely Wednesday..stay safe now..have yourself some fun..but watch out for pirates..and whatever you do remember
BREATHE and smile for me..

SUN...the sun
Last night I went into town to see a movie with Donna, Julie, Peb's and Whitney.. It was great..sad sad sad..But women love sad movies.. : ) And I discovered that I can play videos on this laptop sooooooo I plan on renting a few later today.
Just came in after J J removed the tree the roof. It was quite a show..But it's done and cleaned up. The sun is coming back and long range forecast for warming temps and sunshine through the weekend. Heading to Souris later to get supplies..not sure what else. Tomorrow night heading to town to hear J J play at the Triangle Club. Should be a good time.
Tonight JJ and Julie are coming for dinner..May crank up the new barbecue for the event. We'll see.
Fiddle Festival is just down the road and it is going to be a goodie..I think just about anyone who is in the maritimes will be here.. Can't wait..
So I should get busy here and get to Souris before the sun goes away.. I wish you all a happy Tuesday..stay safe now and watch out for pirates..
Whatever you do remember

Monday, Monday..trust it????
Today the sun is shining..the sky is Sapphire blue. The wind has turned and is blowing from the Northwest. That means cool weather. I'd guess it is around 50 degrees outside at this time. It's 9:30 Canada time at the moment. Hopefully J J will come by later and we can get the tree cleared off the roof of the old house.
Yesterday I took a long walk on the beach..sat on the sand for a bit and watched a family of piping plovers who are nesting near my stretch of sand. They are almost extinct..so here on PEI we do everything possible to protect the nests. Areas are roped off to keep people away..and the nests are covered with a protective fence..that is positioned in a way so that only the birds can enter.. They are tiny grey and white shore birds..very sweet ..The babies are due to hatch within the next two weeks..I hope to have photos to share. Last night was the first Ceilidh of the season at Monticello..J J is hosting them this year.. There was quite a nice crowd..without any real advertising.. I told J that I would make up posters and put them around the camp grounds and stores for him..That is a job for me this week...
I have to pick up a new memory card with an adaptor on it so I can download my photos into this laptop. It is annoying me that I can't do it now. I like to show you all what I am writing about. So when I get it.. I will be editing these notes. Remember to check back.
Later today I am going into town.. (Charlottetown) with a bunch of my friends. We are going to see the movie " My Sisters Keeper" a real down right, without a doubt, "CHICK FLIX ,TEAR JERKER" Can't wait!!
Aside from that I have to get busy writing a press release for the paper back home to let people know about the concerts in the fall. I hope to get that sent off before the end of the week. Another good feature having a laptop. I can get work done. So my friends..so have yourselves a good Monday.. stay safe..watch out for pirates..and remember

Big storm here last night
Wow what a night..an amazing storm came through..Lightning..thunder..rain and wind like I have never seen. Got some amazing pictures. This morning I looked out the window and saw branches on the roof of the old house.. Took a walk back with my neighbor..and went up stairs to be greated by a branch right through the roof in one of the back bedrooms. Good grief.. Have to borrow a chain saw and get it off the roof and repair the roof before more damage it done.. But maybe I'll find the hidden money.. LOL People keep telling me that the original owner " Iver Stewart" hid money in the walls of the place.. now I can take a look..
It isn't badout again today..every thing is wet and a lot of branches are down.but no rain..and I think the sun will be out before mid day. I have a few chores to do then I plan on going out to dinner with J J and the kids..
I wih you all a lovely 4th of July..enjoy the fireworks..stay safe now and make some happy memories.. Whatever you do remember..
Breathe and smile for me..

HOME AGAIN!!!!!!!
Arrived herelast night about 8:30 later than usual beause of traffic at the border. The ride was fine..no prob;ems at all. Today went into Souris for supplies and to see J J and Julie.. SO GREAT to see them and Ella and Brady.. They are sooooo cute. This was an exciting day for the Chaisson Clan of Souris.. Their mini home was sold recentlyand today it was towed away to it's new restingspot out near Sheeps Pond. I went up to see the place for one last time.. It was kind of sad to see it all empty and up in the air..being put onto the back of a tractor trailer. Little Ella wasn't at all happy about the idea. She can't quite understand what is going on. But her new house will soon be here and she and Brady will love it. The new place arives mid August.. Till then they are staying at Julie's Mom's place not far from me at all.
So I am busy here putting my grill together unpacking and such.. So I will cut this short and wish you all a happy Thursday.. Ceilidh tonight!! Gotta get ready to party.. So stay safe my friends..watch out for piratesand what ever you do.. Remember
BREATHE and smile for me!!
