This Week's Favourite Things! Monday September 7th - Sunday September 13th 2015

1.  Turns out the giant plant taking over a chunk of the garden is making pumpkins.  This is the biggest pumpkin I've ever grown! Handtools are in the pic for scale but it's hard to capture the size of this thing because the plant itself is so huge.

Here are a couple more smaller ones from the same plant, they just look so perfect. I think this is a Conneticut field pumpkin plant, not sure though.  In any case it's quite vigorous, and we'll be saving some seeds from it.

And here are this year's Russian Giant Sunflowers.

2.  This Bob Proctor interview on youtube that looks to be from the 80's.  Do You Know Who You Are?

3. The Gaff Point trail at the end of Hirtle's Beach, Kingsburg, around 20 minutes out of Lunenburg.  This is a 7 km loop around coastal bluffs, on land that was protected by the Kingsburg Coastal Conservancy in partnership with Nature Conservancy of Canada and the Nova Scotia Nature Trust and the government.

4.  The schedule for Afterglow, Bridgewater's "Nocturne" which is coming up September 25th and 26th, really nice to see how this is evolving and hope there will be good weather!
