Atlantic Time

What time is it?

We have been in New Brunswick for a week and we just found out that we are in a different time zone, the Atlantic Time Zone. So we now have our watches simonized to the correct time and things don’t really seem much different. I guess us retired folks can get away with not knowing what time it is in this fast paced world. It’s a good thing.

I am glad I have hair this morning. Last night doing a bit of work under the 5th wheel I must have bumped my head three times. Big knots this morning on the cranium. I remember when my dad used to bump his head, there was no hiding it on his bald head.

We have been watching the osprey fishing in front of our camping spot. They are quite the fisher birds. However, I don’t think they are much on the catch and release philosophy of fishing. Did see one release a fish the other day but I think it was more the fishes doing then the seahawk’s.

Also watching some beautiful grey herons in the estuary behind the eco dunes. Must be more then a dozen of them. We counted them a few times, as we had never seen so many herons in one place at one time.

Today is our seventh day in one spot, setting a new record for this trip. We had been caught up in seeing, seeing, seeing and have finally learned that we need to pace ourselves better and stay longer to really do some SEEING. We plan on heading out to Prince Edward Island by Friday. Will miss New Brunswick and its friendly people.
