Nova Scotia Island Journal: Reading locally: Post aus West Head

In May 2011, after four years of life on McNutt's Island, we moved to Montreal. This blog remains, though, as a (sort of) daily record of our time on the island, and a winding path for anyone who would like to meander about among its magical places. For additional perspectives and insights I recommend Greg's book, Island Year: Finding Nova Scotia (2010), and my Bowl of Light (2012). I'll continue to post once in a while. If you do want to read this blog, one option would be to begin at the beginning of it (which is, as we all know, in blog-world, at the end), and read forward, concluding with the most recent entry. It's a journal, really, so it does makes more sense if you read it that way. But, you know, read it any way you like.

Reading locally: Post aus West Head

Margrit at Post aus West Head blogs in both English and German. (There's really quite a significant German population here.) West Head is a lovely place on the south shore, south of Lockeport, on Jordan Bay, which is the next bay east of Shelburne Harbour. It is not at all on the tourist path. Margrit's blog gives you the opportunity to see West Head and the south shore from her perspective. She takes beautiful photographs, and her posts give you the flavour of a quietly stunning part of the world.
