The weather this week has been absolutely beautiful. So, yesterday we decided to go for a drive to Belleisle which is about an hour away and we get to go on two ferry rides. The first ferry is a really short one, only about 5 minutes accross the Kennebecasis River. It's actually Canada's first cable ferry. The second one is a little bit longer, about 15 minutes, accross the Belleisle Bay. The Belleisle Ferry is the longest cable ferry in the world. There are a lot of summer homes and farms in Belleisle. Here are a few pics...
On the way home we stopped at a little place that is well-known for home-made ice cream. It's a bit expensive ($5 for a single scoop) but sooooo worth it! It is the best ice cream I have ever eaten!
As far as stitching goes, there hasn't been much of it. I've been too busy enjoying the outdoors.
As you can see, there are a few more green Xs, but not too many.
I was going through my stash the other day and came accross a needlepoint project that I started about 10 years ago and never finished. I don't have too many UFOs in my stash and after finding this I'm determined it will be finished. No, pic of it right now, but I've got it lined up as my next big project.
I hope the sun finds you wherever you may be!

I've heard of this area but have never visited it. Thanks so much for sharing your pics. It looks absolutely beautiful there.
I'd say you've added more than just a few x's to your WIP. Looks great!
Congratulations on winning South Paw Stitcher's giveaway ; )
Lovely piccies - makes me wish I was there!
Not too many more xs? Are you kidding me? You are silly. ;) You are really coming along on this project quite nicely!
Beautiful photos - looks like you had a lovely day :) Congrats on digging out your UFO and commiting to finishing it - that takes patience galore! Your WIP is going great ;)
