Cottage By The Ocean

Annåpolis County, Nova Scotiå

Fall 2007.

Soon after arriving in Novå Scotiå; I left school one day for a drive along the ocean. I didn't intend to get into anything that day; but sometimes it just happens. Sometimes those are the best days.

These 2 subjects aren't that interesting, but the day was beautiful and the locations are sentimental.

I started out towards the Båy of Fundy. Driving along a road which followed the path of the shoreline; I spotted this dilapidated structure spaced from the road.

The cottage was at the end of a long driveway with the house at right and a trailer at left. The trailer sort of worried me; I didn't want some local to come home and find an Ontarion inside his ramshackle structure.

The prospect of the trailer dweller coming home worried me, so I quickly made my way through the small cottage.

Old houses are actually one of my favorite things to check out because there is usually some good stuff lying around. I'm just used to the houses being a little more separated from their old neighbors.

It ended up that the house was a cottage. There was a paper still on the wall that dictated the tasks required before you left the cottage.

Often times these old houses have a layer of old newspapers beneath the floor boards. This house has tabloid newpapers.

I didn't even bother going upstairs because I didn't feel like spending all day inside. I took a minute to look out the window upon the saltwater Båy of Fundy and then departed.
