Squares – Burgeoning

thanks to Becky B for hosting the Square challenge this past month https://thesquaresofb.com/2024/05/31/squares-renew-31/

I’m sad to have missed most of this challenge. I found it too difficult to post photos on my holiday in the UK. So on the last day of the challenge I’m submitting some square photos of burgeoning proportions.

Road Trip – Days 5

….driving through Shediac, Cormierville and Bouctouche

It was another beautiful day for a road trip.

On our way to Bouctouche we stopped by a roadside shop that specialized in antiques and wood carvings. The owner lovingly explained how all the objects that we were looking at were carved from one block of wood by her very talented husband who had passed six years ago.

Charles Bernard had a very colourful history and apparently learned how to carve wood when he was serving time in the penitentiary. He lived in Bouctouche with his wife for 15 years where they ran the wood carving shop and antiques store.

He even carved his own coffin with his life story carved into the sides
All the books are carved from one block of wood
Even the tools on this bench are carved from wood

The shop is located right on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean.

A Trip to the Aberfoyle Antique Market

48 years ago we bought each other a framed Coca-Cola mirror as a wedding gift to ourselves

The Aberfoyle Market holds many found memories for us. Over the years we have shared this wonderful place with our children and now our grandchildren. On our most recent trip we found some very interesting and fun artefacts. This time we just browsed through the antiques but we also had some very interesting conversations with some of the vendors.

The Aberfoyle Antique Market is located about one hour west of Toronto and is just down the road from the city of Guelph.
