Deer Island

Saturday was Matt's 28th birthday. So, off we went with 10 others to catch a ferry to deer island where we rented a couple suites, had barbecued steak, made a campfire on the beach, hung out in the 'hot' tub, and embarked on general exploratory adventures.




Matt loves to skip rocks. A lot. He's really very good at it.







Apparently this is a cement mixer. When he saw this photo, Matt immediately recognized it as something he used to make at his foundry job years ago.





A fascinating little antique shop on the side of the road. No one was around except these little guys looking out onto the ocean. Classic New Brunswick-style quirkiness.

































After leaving the island we went into Saint John, had some donairs, and enjoyed the great weather.

Such awesome pictures. I think my favorite one is the mailbox one. But oh man, I wish I could have stayed on that island! What a photo op it was! Classic Atlantic Canadian living; stereotypical in many ways.
