HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY ! ! !

I had a great week with my daughter, Chelsey, who was visiting from Oshawa, Ontario. She arrived on Tuesday morning and we had a fantastic week sightseeing and touring around Nova Scotia. I think her favourite place was Peggy's Cove, which is just south of Halifax and she was able to touch the Atlantic Ocean - a first for her.


I had never been there either and it was surprisingly barren, but absolutely beautiful. There were almost no trees and at this time of year the wind was howling and it was dreadfully cold. Yikes - very very cold in deed lol. The picture (top left) is one of my favourite scenery pics of her time here with me. I have several of her as well and have scattered them throughout.

Mr. Finnigan was a great big ball of excited fluff when he saw her coming to the car. He hadn't seen her for over a year and didn't let her out of his sight the whole time she was with us. What else did we do; we went for a couple of long walks, swimming, ate out with a good friend, and spent a lot of time just yakking.

One of the most fun things we did was go to get our cards read by a local lady here. We had a blast as she was quite funny. Our 1/2 hour appointment turned into 3 1/2 hours, but she was such a doll and had much to share with us. She even gave us a ride back to my place as it was cold and dark by the time we had finished. Oh, the future for Chelsey is that she will 'make the right decision' and apparently I am to "see something of Europe soon'. Ha. we had a blast and got into fits of giggles half way through.

We spent some time in Halifax as well and she managed to get some shopping done here in New Minas. Apparently, 'Bench' apparel is the thing to have and she actually found a store here with a good sale and sizes that
fit her. She is quite petite. She purchased a coat and a jacket and moaned all the way back home that she had spent too much lol.

Ah well, she looks fabulous dahling!

So on Saturday, I had the unhappy job of driving her back to Halifax to catch her flight back home to Oshawa. Mr. Finnigan and I are going to miss all the excitement. As for Valentine's Day I got one lovely email from Randy and sent off a few of my own. So, to all those out there reading this a happy happy day to you and yours. Have a wonderful week!
