As part of our 7 weeks in the Atlantic/Maritime Provinces of Canada, my wife, Diane, and I spent almost two weeks in the scenic and historic province of Nova Scotia.
Since I have over 1000 digital pictures, I'll be working on all 5 articles simultaneously. After selecting and uploading the pictures I want to show, I'll add what and where they were. Hopefully, this will be easier than doing one province at a time. Stop back from time to time for future updates.
I know there will be some duplication of other articles I've seen here but hope I can add enough to make this one as interesting to you as it was to us.
Thanks for stopping by.
