Chester-East Coast Lifestyle

We are fortunate that we have a diverse group of friends in Nova Scotia. On a trip there this summer, we went to visit friends that live in Chester, Nova Scotia. Chester is a village on the Chester Peninsula at the end of Mahone Bay.

They have a beautiful home on the bay,  accessed by a winding road that rolls down to the sea. The location is stunning, and their home and guest house have a picture perfect view of the bay. Their home is connected to the ocean by a massive dock. Partway down the dock is a boat house. Here you can escape the hot summer sun or enjoy the frequent rains that occur in the Spring and Fall. At the end of the dock is a couple of motor boats, stand up paddle boards and other ocean toys. Our 16 year old son loves to visit here......anticipating that he will be allowed to drive the smaller motor boat solo.

After an afternoon of boating, swimming and paddle boarding, I took a moment to capture the dock in my sketch book while I relaxed in an Adirondack chair.

ESL-East Coast Lifestyle. It doesn't get much better than this.
