Relocating to Eastern Canada
I've arrived in St.Andrews-By-The-Sea, New Brunswick, a delightful Loyalist tourist town on the Bay of Fundy. I timed my move to coincide with the arrival of Spring but Mother Nature has delayed Spring this year. I am here in the depths of winter, snow on the ground & snow in the air most days. Below freezing forecast for tonight with snow flurries tomorrow...I'm going to stop checking the weather & just see what happens when I wake up!
I'm camping out in my house...bed on the floor & 2 lawn chairs, furniture delayed for another week and there is 3 feet of snow around the house..no heat..burning wood in fireplace. am sitting here, huddled in front of the fire with raven on my lap, trying to stay warm as a fierce snow storm rages outside...there is already a couple of inches of snow out there and more on it's way...I could almost think the weather is a sign that I should not have made the move here but I know that Spring has to eventually come to Atlantic Canada.
I have stacks of wood all over the place, only problem is that the wood is about 30 years dry so burns super quickly and quite a lot of smoke...good kindling, though. Bought a supply of hardwood from the man who cut my trees down...gave me some of his own home supply as no one selling wood this late in the season but i am very grateful to him.
