Here are a few sights of a trip yesterday
from Fort Point to McNutt's Island.
Sandy Point Lighthouse stands on the eastern side of Shelburne Harbour, opposite Fort Point. It marks the beginning of the inner harbour and the Town of Shelburne.
McNutt's Island comes into view as you pass the conspicuous boulder at Fort Point.
View of McNutt's, from the northwest.
A view of the island's eastern shoreline, looking south along the eastern channel and out to sea.
Shelburne Harbour Boat Tour's Brown Eyed Girl is coming home, too. Yesterday she sailed from Lockeport to Shelburne.
The captain of
Chopper I.
The
Fish House.
Coming into the dock. We are currently flying the flag of Queen Elizabeth. You are only supposed to fly it when she is in residence. She's not actually on McNutt's Island, but she is somewhere in Canada this week. So we are stretching a point here and hoping the flag police are distracted by bigger crimes elsewhere.

How nice to have a beautiful commute and not to have to do it every day! I know I enjoy mine - climbing up the North Mountain and feeling the air cool and freshen after inhaling all the smog and hot air that gets trapped in the valley; seeing the homes and small farms starting to spread out and finally getting a panoramic view of the Bay of Fundy as I crest the height of the Mountain and begin to go down to sea level again. Pure heaven! Yours, of course, is even better as it involves a sea trip.
Janet, your trip home sounds delightful. I especially love your mountain with its spectacular Bay of Fundy view.
What a lovely place to live, so open and full of space unlike us in the south east of England who are crammed in like sardines! Speaking of which, I loved the Fish House. I remember when HRH visited Halifax when I was a little girl and we waved flags at her. I must say I didn't really know who she was! Dear old Brenda (that's what some of us prefer to call her) she's still going after all these years...
