Day 106- July 4- Seaweed Rakers




Mom, Dad and I went for a Sunday afternoon drive along the coast. We had stopped for a yummy ice cream at the Farmer's store in Dayton and then headed up through Chebogue and Pembroke. Passing blowing field of hay and grass, brown cows and deep black horses walking behind old fences, dilapidated barns and spectacular houses by the sea. The sun was warm, the wind was strong and the sky was bright blue.

We drove down one road I hadn't been down before, I think it was called the Pembroke wharf road, or something like that. It was close to the area where my dad thinks Maud Lewis, a famous Nova Scotian Folk artist, lived. Coming back we noticed some guys out in a boat raking seaweed, which is a commercial product that gets used as a fertilizer around the world because of it's very rich nutrient contents. Dad told me to take some pictures out of the car window and as I took the first picture, we suddenly realized that the fellow in red had his drawers dropped and was peeing. Oops! I haven't posted this picture, in case you are now scrolling down to see what you can see. Fun day, great location, hope you enjoy the pictures!
