Lazy Friday

We wanted to make lasagna for Supper. Time to visit Atlantic Superstore in Kingston. Afterwards, we enjoyed our customary short walk through the Kingston village park (aka Stronach Park).

Since we were near Greenwood, let’s stop at the Inside Story bookstore. In the magazine section, I found the latest issue of the Nova Scotia Journal of Sustainable Community Development (Spring/Summer 2023).

Articles included ‘ Investment firm energizes Annapolis area economy’ — the story of Annapolis Investments in Rural Opportunities (AIRO). The work of Jane Nicholson and Adele MacDonald.

A second story was The River Rescuers: how a community came together for sustainable change in addressing pollution in the LaHave River (Lunenburg County).


On our return home, we stopped at Bees Knees in Lawrencetown. It was a lucky day for hand pies, quiche and brown bread.

Next week will be busy. One Tuesday, COGS campus hosts the Industry Expo in Lawrencetown. Thursday will be Antique Maps: a Journey through time and place (again at COGS).

Friday, it’s my time to pay attention to the body — men’s strength and fitness at CORAH, NSCC Middleton.

In the Bridgetown Reader, I see that they are recruiting a General Manager for the Annapolis Valley Exhibition. I hope there is a community vision to link the geographic sciences at COGS with the opportunity for educational events that apply these technologies to agriculture at the Exhibition.
