Day 232 of a 365-Day Portrait of Canada: Cheticamp

A storm passes over Cheticamp, creating a dramatic sky.

These two love birds have been sitting on this same porch for 35 years!

Even though Cheticamp is a Acadian Village, you will find many folks who fly the Canadian flag.

This team of fishermen take a day off after working from 4:30 a.m. to p.m. fishing for snow crab.

Day 230 of a 365-Day Portrait of Canada: The Cabot Trail

The Cabot Trail is hard on brakes, suspension and gas!

Not many fishermen fish on Sunday, but there were a few boats out in the waters this morning.

Donald MacIassic

Can you believe that I stopped at the MacIassic’s place just to take a photo of the barn, and ended up having Lobster bunch?

Good thing I dressed up for Sunday brunch!
