Another #Racist and #LGBTQ #Hate #Crime happened up in the #AnnapolisValley of #NovaScotia on Monday, this time an attack on a 14-year-old black child and his friend.
The Annapolis Valley Exhibition issued an oddly pathetic non-apology at: https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=616685713992729&set=a.566836452310989

#Activists & #advocates gathered in downtown #Halifax Tuesday afternoon to call for an overhaul of the #JusticeSystem to improve its treatment of #IndigenousPeople & to #honour the #memories of #Indigenous people who #died in provincial custody.
The crowd marched from the Peace & Friendship Park to the #HalifaxCentralLibrary holding signs that read "Real Justice Doesn't Kill People" & "Say Their Names."

We hauled out my grandfather's apple wood #sauerkraut stomper today and it gave me all the feels about why I love using vintage/antique #kitchenalia and #handtools.
It's made from wood trimmed from trees on his #AnnapolisValley, #NovaScotia farm, and has been used for #krautmaking for several decades. He passed along his knowledge of how to make kraut and, when he died, my grandmother passed along his stomper.

Have a lovely Sunday everyone. I hope you all stay warm and dry. It's pretty miserably outside today, so we're staying indoors.
This was taken a few years ago, but could be today, from the look of it.
Look for the light, there is always some if you look hard enough.

Kingsport Beach and Bi-Plane
Longing for summer beach days like this one. This was taken in 2014, on one of our beach walks. We have wonderful beaches in Nova Scotia, something for everyone - some with sand or stone, pebble or rocks. This is on the Bay of Fundy near Canning.
Have a lovely day, friends, dreaming of sunny summer days.

Sunset Medford Nova Scotia, Leap Day, 2012 - facing East
This flat area to either side of the stream would be under water at high tide, which has left a frozen coating behind as it retreated on this February evening. There is a fishing #boat just visible at the mouth of the inlet.
Enjoy your day, Fedi-Friends.

Houston's Beach, Nova Scotia.
Known to us as 'Strawberry Beach'.
One day in October 2012, there were strawberries as far as the eye could see on this beach on the Bay of Fundy. No kidding. Wherever did they come from? There must have been a line of 1/2 km 18″ wide, of strawberries on the waterline. And that’s just the #beach that we could see.
