Pheasant Shot in Noel, Nova Scotia …….. I’m not just talking about it
We stayed in a 200 yr old farmhouse with a view of the highest tides in the world (55 ft). Acadian dikes still protect the fields from the tide, reclaiming arable land in age old tradition.
Wildlife in abundance, from the land to the table. Some fine wine and late night chats with my buddies. So what about the important things in life and some gold and silver stashed ??
