Peggy's Cove

On the 4 mile drive between our camp & Peggy's Cove we saw a place that couldn't help but catch our eye. 

This is the house of a fun-loving, artist, author & whimsically funny fellow;

 Ivan Fraser. 

That's him in the yellow rain hat below..

He painted that dead tree above  so it would 
just be a "pretty" thing in his yard.

....And several of his other artistic endeavors 
are in the video & collage below.

One might even say Ivan Fraser is sort of a mascot for Peggy's Cove. Everyone seems to know  him & vice versa.

 We've seen lots of Coves & Lighthouses 

but nothing quite as beautiful as this area.

I'm adding the signs below because the Danger one was in the video above but the last line about the Rocks wasn't visible AND....I had to ask someone what the SANDING thing was.

Give up?  In the winter where there is snow, most areas salt down the roads to melt the snow & ice BUT in certain areas, when you see these signs you are not allowed to use salt....SAND ONLY. It has to do with the watershed & in these areas if salt were used their well water would be contaminated.

Tomorrow HALIFAX.
