Theodore Tugboat  was tied up at the Hubbards Waterfront wharf today. Even though it was raining cats & dogs, we went to see him and take photos; the we being myself, my daughter & grand daughter. Above is the usual photo of the cove & below is a close up of Theodore. While I was at the waterfront I took a photo of the cove from that view as well. You can see the autumn colours starting to show even though it doesn't feel a bit like autumn today. Warm, wet and windy conditions prevail.

Red Sky at Morning....

Sunset after a very rainy day.
There's a full moon tonight but I don't expect we'll notice.

Late Afternoon Clouds with a Touch of Red

I just realized after publishing this post and looking at both photos, you might not realize that the photos were taken minutes apart and from the same location. The cove shot is looking west, while the tree shot is looking south. Quite a different sky in each!

Unusual

This was taken on my way to work this morning, which I don't usually take time to do. Equally unusual was that the mist was rising from the river flowing into the cove rather than the waters from the bay, so I took the photo from the opposite side of the cove. I just love those tenders all nestled up together in the stillness of morning.
On a personal note, I learned recently that an old friend, living in California, checks my blog everyday. Hi Wendy & thank you!

Friday, Monday, Sunday... in that order

the Cooper's Inn garden side, Shelburne, NS

I'm late in posting and there are no photos of Hubbards Cove from Saturday or Sunday. It was our 22nd wedding anniversary and we were off to spend Saturday night in Shelburne, at the Cooper's Inn. We had dinner at the Charlotte Lane Cafe. Yum!! Sunday we spent the day driving back along the coast, stopping now and then for a hike.

Today was warm, wild & windy. Not here in the cove, but out on the bay there were plenty of whitecaps and shortly after this photo was taken, it was very wet. Whew!

A slice of sunrise sky from my back deck. I love the layers of colour.

Heavy rain and a thunderstorm last night left us with clear skies and just a touch of autumn in the air today.

I've been having trouble with the comments section of my blog. I just made adjustments to the settings that should enable anyone to comment. Give it a try, if you're inspired to do so!

Glorious September days. Soft September evenings

Now that the temps are getting cooler at night, the water is warmer than the air during the early morning and makes these wonderfully misty mornings.

Rain, Rain and More Rain

A very rainy night and day. Somewhere in the vicinity of 100 mm was forecast. Looking forward to a little dryness tomorrow.

The first weeks of school are time and energy consuming so my blog is on a back burner. I usually get the photo, but don't always make it to the computer. So here are two photos from last evening and one from this morning.

After Labour Day

If you look at photos # 52 & 53 you'll notice they are almost the same in composition but the colour is very different. They were taken 2 days apart and at different times of day, if remembered correctly. # 52 was taken a bit later in the morning than #53. There were no photos taken yesterday, Labour Day. I spent a busy and pleasant day with the family, late morning & early afternoon at the beach, late afternoon & evening at the Atlantic Fringe Festival.

Shining Waters and First September Evening

Where did August go? The older I get the faster time passes or at least it seems that way, but this summer even the youngins are commenting on the flight of summer. That's OK because autumn is beautiful too.

This was a spectacular view of shining ocean waters from Gold River. The photo doesn't quite do the experience justice

Blue Moon Morning

Taken on my way to work. Tonight there will be a blue moon. It's said if you dance naked under a blue moon and throw money in the air, prosperity will come to you. Even if it doesn't, it's a lot of fun!
