This is the Raquette, just outside of downtown Digby.

One of the many spots where you can see the dramatic effects of the world-famous high tides of the Bay of Fundy. 

Here, you can see low tide, which gives you the ability to walk on the ocean floor.

At high tide, the water fills right up to where you can see the snow line.

It's pretty common to see people looking for treasure at low-tide here.

But make sure you know when the tide is coming in. You do not want to be out there at high tide!

This will not be news to anyone here, but we're happy to see an article on The Daily Wrap about why scallops are so great! 

Titled: Why Scallops Deserve a Spot On Your Plate. 

The article states that not only are scallops delicious, but they are also very good for your health! Since they are a rich source of proteins, including essential amino acids and they also contain omega-3 fatty acids

The article also states that scallops contain valuable selenium, which protects the body from the toxic effects of heavy metals and has anti-cancer properties.

The article then goes on to praise them for their versatility, as something you can eat raw, or cook with endless flavour possibilities. 

The only thing we would have added, is to make sure you try them in the Scallop Capital of The World. Digby, Nova Scotia 😉

Bear River - The Tidal Village on Stilts. The Switzerland of Nova Scotia. An unincorporated place that is in two counties but without a formal government.

Also known as L’sitkuk (flowing along by high rocks or water that cuts through) as it is known in the Bear River Mi’kmaq community.

Known for many different things, including it's The Artist Village, nearby wineries, impressive tides, The Cherry Carnival, lack of traffic lights or big box stores and of course the fall colours, which you can see here. 

What's your favourite thing about Bear River?

An odd day today, as the temperature gets into the double-digits! 

It won't last long, but long enough to give you that reminder of how great spring to fall is after a long cold winter. 

Kind of like looking at this beautiful sunset picture taken a few summers back.

Do you know the view? Can you identify what we're looking at? 

Bonus points if you can name the body of water, island, and opening in the mountain.

Just over a year ago, Matt Holubowski - a Québécois artist, released this video that was shot entirely in the Digby Area, for a song that was inspired by a sunset he watched at Sandy Cove Beach, Digby Neck.
