Tomorrow is the first day of summer, at last! After what seemed like a winter that went on forever we can now enjoy the outdoor beauty of Cape Breton. Speaking of outdoors…or doors themselves, I’ve encountered a couple of oddly ( but pretty) coloured moths hanging around on my door today.
The green one is about 3 inches in length and the pink and yellow one is much smaller. I am on a mission to identify their origin. Anyone have any suggestions?
Baddeck was host to the Silver Dart Centennial Air Show this past Wednesday and what a show it was. The aerobatic F18’s with their ear-splitting sound effects were a highlight for me and my deck guests…all of whom swore they were having a coronary after the jet arrived from behind , without advance notice for the spectators.
It’s National Aboriginal Day, a great way to learn more about the Mi’kmaq historic culture and rich history. Did you know the first known inhabited Mi’kmaq site in the Maritimes dates back more than 10,000 years?
Don’t forget to visit the three Canadian war ships that have arrived in Sydney Harbour. Also, the Wagmatcook weekly gatherings are in full swing for the summer. Check out their weekly shows.
Remember…where you can and when you can, buy local.
Wishing one and all a super day!

Thanks to John Johnson of the Victoria Standard ( our local paper in Baddeck ) for indentifying the Luna Moth and I have found out the pink and yellow moth is a Rosy Maple Moth. Cheers everyone.

So…you’ve bought a home. Congratulations! Now the work begins. Here are a few tips to get you organized so you move will go smoothly.
Firstly.., sort through every room and get rid of everything you do not need or want in your new home. Have a garage sale with the items that are still of use. Get lots of boxes. Defrost the fridge the day before. Make sure you cancel newspapers, milk delivery, water, cable, power, and fuel.
Return library books. Collect medical and school records. Cancel club memberships. Obtain a copy of your will. Close out local charge accounts. Change insurance policies to reflect the new home. Get a change of address at the post office. Notify charge accounts. Get medical records for all your pets.
I hope this helps make your moving day a success.
Wishing one and all a super day!!
