This week, we have become sharply aware of the changes in demography in rural Nova Scotia. We are moving from a rural route into Middleton.
Our neighbours have moved from Toronto to Hwy #201, Paradise., with their young family. Furthermore, we met another young family who have moved from Slovenia via Penticton. Arriving this week to purchase a farm property on Hwy #201 in Carleton Corner.
I hope that the residents of Annapolis County will extend support and welcome to these new residents. They are seeking to live close to the land and become part of the farming community.
As part of our move into town, we have had to deal with the bureaucracy of different banking systems. In particular to move assets from ScotiaBank, Bridgetown (closing in November) to the Credit Union in Middleton. The challenge has been exacerbated by the intricacies of online banking.
Hopefully, this weekend, Andrew (our son) will arrive after the long drive from BC to NS.Then we can move the heavy furniture from Paradise to Middleton.
The move presents a time of stress. We have accumulated many artifacts, books and memories from twenty four years at #6326.
Taking a break, we walked the Middleton Marsh trail. It includes new signage prepared by CARP. Thank you Sandra Barry, for keeping us current with the wetland project.
