We've lived here for 3 years now and still it doesn't get old...
Peggy's Cove Lighthouse
We go there all year around, here are some Winter shots.

Hell I wanna come just for the free hugs! You are so very lucky to live there. Does it get a ton of snow usually during the winter?

Ha! Right on :)
Yeah we can get some pretty big dumps of snow, yet unlike the other places I've lived in Canada, it usually melts right away :) <3

What are the regular temps in the winter? Im guessing not as frigid as other places youve lived in Canada? My grandma was born in Alberta and grew up there so Im proud to be part Canadian!

Oooh yeah, I spent a decade in Alberta, it's much warmer here on the coast, the South Shore of NS. Our coldest month is February and the one cold day I've ever seen was -15 hahahahaaa. It's usually the average of -5 and -10 for February. In Alberta I've experienced -50....

So what do you guys do in the winter for fun?
Are you able to keep the greenhouse going?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

We did have the greenhouse heated one year, it was too much money in wood heat. Really the best method would be to build a walpini style greenhouse, so it's dug into the ground, for winter growing. When we have our own land, that's what we're going to try :)
Winter fun? Mostly just relax and enjoy the break from the busy summer/fall. The kids always have a blast on the snow days. They go skating too. I just chill...lol

The rocks are black because they're soaked with sea water, correct?
I imagine the water to be VERY cold... assuming that the gulf stream completely bypasses your area...
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Yes, the water is VERY cold and the waves are always crashing in, people don't understand how slippery those rocks are, it's like an algae or something like that, you got it, it's where the water is constantly passing over, or completely submerged at high tide. The tide will sweep a person out who falls in SO FAST! And there's always the chance too that a wave will smash you into one of the big rocks, and then yeah...death.

Morons of Peggys Cove reminds me of the "So many dumb ways to die" campaign on youtube XD Have you seen that?
It's kind of arrogant to challenge slimy rocks and the power of the sea... too bad they couldn't just get a warning slap from a giant squid first...

What lovely post and a lovely life you live there. Just seeing the photos and reading worked out well, and what beautiful photos they were. I'm in another restaurant in Thailand but this time they're playing pop music!
Hope you are well!

I love Peggy's Cove. I had the opportunity to visit a friend for a summer when I was a teenager. That was 45 years ago! Yikes! Back then a family by the name of Beal ran the light house. What a fun summer that was! I love the idea of free hugs! What an amazing experience for your family...

Wow you have an incredible memory and the place must have really left an impression on you. The lighthouse is no longer open unfortunately but the light is always on. The Beale's are a huge family out here, they have many shops and an art museum too <3
