On Friday July 30th, our last full day in Vermont, we hosted a lovely family-friendly, fun, free-pile, forage, frolic, and farewell to Vermont friends and neighbors. On Saturday, we cleaned and packed, and cleaned and packed and then...cleaned and repacked.
We made it to Nova Scotia on Sunday and the kids finally got to see their Nonna and our family from all over. Nonna is recovering from surgery and was so happy to see her grandkids.

Next, we headed to the South Shore, to stay with some of our family and hit the beach three days in a row. The sun was hot and the water was COLD. We rode the waves and played in the sand with our small cousins.
After that we traveled back to the Annapolis Valley where dad took the family on an extended roots tour, complete with long stories, "historic sites," and a great swim spot.
These first few weeks have felt like our old vacation routines (pre-COVID) - a mix of the busy-ness of hanging with extended family, eating ice cream every day, and catching up with old haunts. We are slowly unwinding from the craziness of trying to pack out of our lives in Vermont.
