Mickey Hill Pocket Wilderness Trail

The Mickey Hill Pocket Wilderness Trail was a new trail for us to explore. This is a map of the trail. One of Mikes friends visited this place and he suggested we should go. I had not even heard of the place. We took the kids up for a day trip and to find the geocache located there. It was a beauftiful spot for photography hiking and picnics.

This is right beside the picnic area, next time I would bring peanuts for the squirrels/chimpunks, they seemed tame.

The brook/river is so pretty there, I would have loved to have tried fishing there.

Location is in Annapolis, Nova Scotia.

Birds, Cardinals, Chickadee’s Window Bird Feeder | Bird Watching Nova Scotia

For Christmas this year my mother-in-law Bessie, got me a window bird feeder. I have adored her feeders every time I visited. I love this feeder! It took a few months for the birds to find it and get comfortable coming to it, but I love this feeder for a few reasons.

The feeder sticks to the window very well, better then I expected, it actually made it through a winter hurricane and every other wind we have had in Nova Scotia this year!

Most pests cannot get in it, or at least not easily, raccoon’s cannot get in it and they tried, there were footprints on the window to prove it! Lol Pigeons can get in it with a lot of work. I think I may have figured out an addition to make it pigeon proof too!

Another thing I love about this feeder is its easy to clean and pop off the window and wash it well.

However the best thing is the view of the birds, can really get close and see details. I have a chair by the window to relax and watch.

You can get these in Canada at Home Hardware locations.

Gulliver’s Cove Hiking Trail, Digby Neck, NS

Found a new hiking trail in Digby Neck, Nova Scotia called Gulliver’s Cove Hiking Trail or as the sign show’s High Cliff Cove Look-Off. It’s a pretty easy walking trail, until you get to the cliff, you can stop there, or go down over the cliff onto the rocks(at low tide).

The cliffs were scary coming down. We came down and around in the area in the picture below. There was a walkway of sorts but that was ruined in the weather, however there was a rope to help you down. I am not a climber and I made it down, so I think just about anyone can.

They are very kind people and work harder physically then some 20 year olds. They both chop, split and haul wood for their fire and many others in their church. Their level of giving and caring for others is something to admire.

I love my vegetable garden and they have inspired me in what they can do. They do all their work by hand and grow tons of vegetables! Every time I go up I always go look at their garden and ask tons of questions on what they do.

I love passing that information on, my Dad taught me some and Mike has taught me so much. In the picture above Mike is explaining to Maddy and Cait about corn(picture from last year). Maddy listens and absorbs a lot and loves to help me in the garden.

Love going out for beach walks or on trails. The big chair was destroyed this winter during a storm but I hear they are rebuilding that. Lots of work to happen but I’m excited to see it all done and take the kids out!

Historical Acadian Village in Pubnico, NS

The past few summers we have went to the Historical Acadian Village. The village is run by workers that demonstrate how things were done in the old days. There is a working forge, animals, walking trails and so much more. Each time I have visited it was a totally different experience and awesome.

This is the entrance to the village.

Out front of the village is a carved statue of Baron Philippe Mius d’Entremont. It was carved by my brother, James Mackay.

The forge was going the first time during my visit, he made us a nail to take home. It was amazing to see how they were made and the man running it was so informative and friendly. There are many old tools in this shop. Ask questions they are all very knowledgeable in history. This place should be a school field trip!

This is the chicken coop, made the old way. The branches weaved to make the outside pen, very cool and cheap chicken pen!

Salt fish drying, kids loved this..and maybe tested it. The salt fish building smells fishy but its interesting to see how they did it.

Inside one of the houses at the village. I loved hearing about the items in the house. The ladies in the houses bake cookies in a wood burning oven and give them to visitors. They also bake the staff members lunch each day using older methods. I didn’t get a picture of the gardens, but they grow and tend vegetable gardens and use those vegetables in the meals they cook. The ladies do everything, knitting, cooking, baking, and making preserves. They are also quick to stop and talk about the older items in the house. I love the old kitchen stoves and the kitchen gadgets.

image

This was one of the new places I saw this past year. The ladies were working on an entirely hand stitched quilt and they let you help and teach you how. Considering I love quilts, for me, this was awesome. The lady helping me was so patient and helpful and knowledgeable about other areas of the village. She answered many of my questions!

image

This guy was weaving nets down by the wharf and talking about all the old fishery methods and tools. This guy was really interesting to talk to and kind. They also gave us a old fashioned lobster claw pin!

Maddy feeding one of the cows at the village, I think there are 2 there.

Over all I enjoy myself every time I go. There is usually something a little different each time, I know friends have had their kids do laundry the old fashioned way, they have kite flying events, a rhubarb festival, teddy bear picnic day, scavenger hunt events and so much more.

If you can enjoy learning and nature and walking a bit…this is a great place to bring the family for a day trip. They even have a cafeteria on location for lunches and drinks and they are not insanely over priced. There is a cost to get in the village, but it’s worth it.
