In the morning on Saturday we met with some friends who also have wire-haired dachshunds. We visited with them and their handsome boy Odin. The dogs eyed each other carefully and we were invited to lunch at their home. It was such a nice time that I hated to see it end but we had to get ready for the party.
The party was Saturday night and everything was so nice. We all met before hand at the homestead for pictures and to joke and talk some more.
Hubby with his cousins.
Me with some of the spouses.
Afterward, we put the pups in their crate and then headed to the community hall for the dinner. It was a roast beef dinner with mashed potatoes and peas and carrots. For dessert, fresh strawberry shortcake! Mmmmm! My favorite.
After dinner we all seemed to empty into the parking lot as he temperatures inside the hall were high. Have I mentioned that they are having a heat wave up here in Nova Scotia? It’s been in the 90’s each day with no rain!
We leave Sunday in the morning for the return trip to New Hampshire. We will get the 1 PM ferry in Digby to St. John, New Brunswick, and our estimated time of arrival at home is about midnight.
It’s been wonderful coming up here and we look forward to our next trip up.
I just looked at all pictures from your family meeting. It seems to be a very beautiful area ! You are lucky I would prefer a heat wave too instead of freezing over here ! We still have not more than 60F ! Have a nice trip back !
It looks as thought though you were all having such a good ime…
The photos look fantastic, especially when you were all walking through the mud!!!
Hi Maribeth
You made me homesick for my family’s part of Nova Scotia, it’s been 4 years, which is too long. It looks like you are pretty near Annapolis Valley and the home of the Acadians and the “Evangeline” (of Longfellow’s poetry) church. It’s one of my all time favorite parts of the province. My family is in the country, near the ocean, on the Eastern Shore. Last time I was there, a friend and I did some driving around, visiting all of my favorite places. Lucky you! Have a safe trip home, Michele
That all looks like so much fun. The scenery in Nova Scotia is so beautiful. I love looking at the pictures I took when I visited.
Glad you had such a good time!
Looks like you have all had a wonderful time 🙂
I have been catching up on your family reunion, it looks like so much fun (love the walk in the mud but I would have been the one taking pics only!) and the scenery is just glorious. Hope you had a safe trip driving back home.
Did you finish the HP book ??
