Hiking & Fossil Hunting

The fun continues as I had a couple of great day trips this week!

On Monday my Gramps and Aunt Olivia and I went hiking at Fundy National Park!  We had a blast even when it poured rain at one point!

I only have a few pictures of this because my aunt used her SLR camera for most of the photo taking while Gramps and I used the video camera and underwater camera.

Wish I could share some of the video footage with you but can't unless I go through You Tube.

Maybe I'll post some of the pictures later when my aunt gets them loaded onto the computer.

I stayed the night at Gramps and Nanny's then my younger sister Lyvia joined us on Tuesday morning and the three of us set out on our second fossil hunting adventure.

It took a little effort to find a good place but we found some great fossils and had a lot of fun.

Me Underwater

Then we went swimming at Grand Lake.




It was freezing but we just couldn't pass up the swimming and photo shoots with the underwater camera.

The water was a strange orange brown as you will see in the underwater photos of Lyvia and I.

We were going to go camping this weekend all the family including my Grandparents and aunt Olivia but hurricane Irene's coming for a visit and no one wanted to be in a tent for that!  

Summer Fun Continues

Went to the fair a few Saturdays ago, stayed most the day and into the evening to watch the fireworks.  It was a lot of fun, but it sure was a hot day!  The rides were excellent, got to go on a lot of them several times.  Lots more pictures on my Facebook page of the fair and fireworks.

Spending lots of time at my Aunt and Uncles pool, they're the best for letting us enjoy their pool!


Went on a back to school shopping trip last Saturday, we now have everything we need!

Coming up, going hiking at Fundy National Park with my Gramps and Aunt Olivia.  It's a 7K hike with some great swimming holes along the way, should be fun!   Then it's fossil hunting day with Gramps and my sister Lyvia.  We always go swimming at Grand Lake afterwards and of course eat out somewhere.

This week it's Gymnastics camp and I'm working hard :-)

Weekend At Nanny & Gramps

Well it was a fun weekend with my Grandparents.  Did a lot of fun art stuff and I got to make a lot of movies using ibooth and the video camera, plus just goofing around on the computer.  We also rented three movies over the weekend.

These are some photo's that Nanny took of Lyvia and I making some beaded gifts for our parents and creating special boxes for the fun stuff we collect.  We will use them to keep our fossils in that we collect once we go again with our Gramps in August. Mum and Dad are back home from their trip and I'll have to post about what they brought Lyvia and I later.

It's going to be a fun week.  It's family vacation time and we have tickets to go to Old Home Week and take in all the rides for two different days! Plus we will go to Jelly Stone Park, camping and water-slides, hayrides and lots of fun stuff.  What a great week it's going to be, but I'll post more about that come the end of the week.
