Back Again

Auntie's turn for the worse ended on May 11th when she passed away.

Rose the Gypsy took good care of me.


Bar Harbor, Maine:





Lucy Neatby's House (Halifax, Nova Scotia):




The cemetery where some of the Titanic victims are buried (still Halifax):


Handmaiden hand-dyed yarns out to dry (also Halifax):


An exhibit in Halifax that opened up for us:

Decompressing in The Crow's Nest:


Barry from Boston in the piano bar:


Belfast Mini-Mills on Prince Edward Island:









Monkey towel in our stateroom:


Quebec City (the coldest place we visited!):














The Boat:
