The weather was perfect for company this weekend. Our good friends Maneau and Jake came to visit us in Saint John … to celebrate my birthday and enjoy the excellent Goldilocks temperature on our back deck – not too hot, not too cold. The wine flowed freely as we laughed and sang the night away (Foo Fighters/Quebec/Lightning/Danger/Survived). Great fun and equally great memories.
Next morning after breakfast, Maneau and Jake (and Stella, the golden lab princess) departed for home and Monica and I decided to go for an afternoon hike to get some exercise and strengthen the leg muscles for Ireland. Destination… Bald Mountain in Welsford… I was excited to show this natural wonder to Monica and this time, we’re doing the whole trail including Trail B = moderate and Trail C = Difficult! = absolutely stunningly beautiful. Here is the 24 hr photo reel:
