Sunday we drove to Red Bay to check out the nursery at Earthbound Gardens where I bought a cute little Dwarf Balsam Fir. Then we saw a bear sneaking out between the cottages. We kept driving. Eric sized up a few boat launches (Bass Season Countdown has begun). The girls heckled seagulls as we snacked at a roadside chip wagon. I bought ceramic tea paraphernelia at a community art gallery. Eventually, we made our way to a side trail at Lion’s Head Provincial Nature Reserve and had a gorgeous hike through lilacs, pine, hemlock, and cedar.
