August 2018

This year has been quite a restorative time for me.  The house, which was in need of repair, has had a new roof installed, and new structural support to the northeast side, along with clapboard siding. The back door has been replaced, and the house is dry after lots of rainy days.  I'm so grateful for my little cottage by the bay. 

Road Trip To Pleasant Bay, Nova Scotia

By the end of this summer, I hope to meet many of my Timmons cousins in Nova Scotia. Although my mother always told us that our grandfather came from Prince Edward Island, there are many public records that point to Pleasant Bay and Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. Although I don't expect to unravel that mystery for certain, I do plan to meet my cousins living along the Cabot Trail. Here's a map showing the trip I'll be taking with my sister Cecelia.
