Cape Breton - 33 Highway Photos

I have gathered some of my photos, the ones that were taken from the highways across Cape Breton during summer months where the grass is green and the weather is warm. If you are somewhat familiar with the island, you'll most likely know the location of each photo. If you're not familiar with the island, this is a quick trip around, enough to get a feel of Cape Breton Island while driving through on some of the main highways. Of course it doesn't cover all of the spectacular drives and sights, but another post of Autumn Highway Pics might be in the making. For now I hope you enjoy this drive across Cape Breton Island via The Canso Causeway, Route 19, The

Oh, those dandelions

There is something about dandelions, no matter how some of us might loathe them, they can still brighten up a field. They're so bright, you'd think they would glow in the dark. The Cape Breton Living Webcam (photo below) shows the dandelions appearing like sunny yellow buttons dotting the green grass in the field. I suppose it won't be long now  this little yellow flower (or weed) will turn into seed and we'll be blowing the seeds into the wind and making a wish...

Reg's Garden

So now that springtime is here I'm looking forward to warmer and brighter days of summer. It's time to change the cool winter theme of my screensaver to a warm summer theme. I have in a folder on my computer, 187 colourful photos of flowers and garden life. Perfect for a screensaver. This garden (Reg's garden) is where we got these wonderful photos and it's a sin to have them just sitting in a folder somewhere on my computer's hard drive. What a great way to bring them back to life! This set of photos is from last August 2011 and taken in my neighbour's back yard in L'Ardoise.  Thanks Reg for the walk in your garden...
