This week, I received the quarterly newsletter from Jon Percy. Fundy Tidings is a useful compendium of initiatives that impact the ecology of the Bay of Fundy. It serves to reinforce the concept that even within the global pandemic environment, there are still individuals concerned about our local geography: landscape and seascape.
Jon performs a service to the community by documenting the activities of the Bay of Fundy Ecosystem Partnership (BOFEP).
To celebrate my birthday and Valentine’s Day, Heather and I enjoyed a breakfast of Belgian waffles at the Green Elephant in Kingston.
To top off the day, we watched The White Tiger on Netflix. Set in India, the story describes the journey from rural poverty to entrepreneurial success.
Of course, white tigers are extremely rare, as indeed, are green elephants.
Postscript
On Friday afternoon, we picked up ‘take and bake’ tacos with the fixings at Lunn’s Mill on the Carleton Road, Lawrencetown ( Highway #201). Very good.

Thanks for this. I also realized that I had not responded to your previous blog posting.
As I compare what I see in your blogs related to discussion and action on public issues in the Valley with what is (not) happening on the South Shore, there is a huge gap. Lunenburg town is in a period of continuing decline and there is no discussion, let alone an action plan (a recent $325k study commissioned by the Town is a hugely ambitious catalogue of desirable outcomes with no institutional or financial capacity to realize.) As for the District of Lunenburg, the silence is deafening.
So, hats off to you guys in the Valley!
