The North Shore was full of energy this evening, so much so that the seagulls were hunkering down and the waves both pushed us in and pulled us out. Delicious, if you stayed in confident depths. Such a healing place, tumbling the spirit like sea glass, sharper edges smoothed, revealing beauty. #PEI

A selfie. Kelly smiling into the camera with the waves crashing along the shoreline behind her. She has her hair clipped up, sunglasses on, and the black straps of her bikini are visible.

A speckled juvenile seagull all hunkered down in the champagne-pink sand.

Happiest PRIDE, everyone! My health has been a challenge recently so I needed to continue my self-prescribed quiet time at the shore, but I brought my colours! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ I hope the parade and other celebrations were fantastic 💕#PEI

St. Peter's Harbour Heritage Lighthouse, nestled between two sand dunes. The dunes are topped with marram grass.

A flag with hearts in the colours of flags of various 2SLGBTQ+ identities placed in the sand along the shoreline.

Stunning clear water, rippled with light, with bright rosy champagne sand at the shoreline and a lighthouse in the far distance on the dunes.

This place. This place! 🥰 #PEI

Photo taken while standing in the ocean water. The view is back toward the beach, with dark green topped dunes. There are people scattered across the beach. The water is sparkling and light ripples down to the sand below.

Kelly and Matt standing in front of the water - both are in sun glasses and are smiling. Kelly has dark hair with a bright red streak. It is clipped up. Matt is bald with a full salt and pepper beard. He is in a black tee shirt, she is in a grey tank dress.

I'm so stoked - I got Henry an even bigger cage and it finally arrived! It's a double-flight cage, essentially the biggest I can get before we're into outdoor aviary style cages. I can't stop grinning 🥰

In the background, against a picture window, a long and large white bird cage against a picture window. There is a small green parrot inside with perches and toys.

I got this backpack carrier last year, but our vet warned bird owners against being outside (avian flu was raging). SO! We finally got to test it out and Henry had a great time 💕He got warm pretty quickly tonight (understandable, at 27C) so we kept it short, but definitely a success. 🦜

This lil studmuffin wants to remind everyone how handsome he is. (This is Henry Chikin Goodfellow for anyone new to us)

Henry, a small green parrot with orange feathers at his shoulders. He is a fiery shouldered conure. He is close to the camera, looking on an angle. Behind him are plants, curtains, and a painting. The light is soft.

Another evening at the water followed up with BBQ in some of the prettiest soft light (that sweet spot just before it turns to the proper sunset). This time of year always has me remembering gratitude.

Two seagulls launching into flight at the water's edge. The sand is reddish and the water is shades of green and blue.

The sun shines through a tree, lighting up its leaves. In the background is a low simple wooden fence with a brightly light field behind.

Pale pink flowers in a cluster with the sun shining through with the warmth in the setting sun.

Today was magic at the shore. 💕 The water was calm and cool against the smoldering day and the slow breeze was perfect for bubbles.

Islanders really are the best sometimes. 🥹❤️ I hope the young folks have a fab time at the concert, and I hope the owner gets to really relax. I'll have to make sure I visit and get a meal this summer.

Pedro's North Rustico: "Hope you're having a wonderful day everyone, This is to announce that July, 9, 10 and 11, Pedro's will be closed due to staff shortages, they're young and want to go to to he concerts. Who am I to stop them so, I will take a 3 day well deserved break and stay home and relax. Hope you understand and thank you for all the support."

It was lovely today - sunshine, warm enough to get a bit heated on our hike, but with the neatest cool fog rolling in over the water. I got my wish - I was somewhere green, unreachable 😌💕 (also, there were ducklings. DUCKLINGS.)

Cavendish Beach, Prince Edward Island. There are people scattered on the sand, a dense fog is coming off the water, blurring the view.

Kelly and Matt smiling at the camera with a green field behind them full of lupin in the background, with water beyond the flowers. Kelly is in a pink tee shirt and has her hair up with a daisy tucked in. She has a bright read streak in her dark hair. She's wearing sunglasses. Matt is also wearing sunglasses, he is in a black tee shirt and is peering over Kelly's shoulder. He has a salt and pepper beard and he's wearing a beige bucket hat.

The vet said he was a sweetheart, and I was so proud of him for being such a good and brave boy 🥹 He was proud too, I think; he muttered about being a good boy a few times tonight 😊

Ack! It's also never too late to wish Happy PRIDE Month 💕 (for me, on Epekwitk / PEI, PRIDE is always July 🌈 and then I remember it's officially June!) *Image by the fabulous Liberal Jane 🎨

OKAY, weird suggestion. What if you post my drawing as the photo, then describe the growlers in the text referring only to fluid when discussing what they hold? You may even be able to sneak the photos into the comments. 😅

A lovely day. 🥹 We drove out to St. Peter's Bay, biked 10km (proud of us!), and finished the day with a fire. The Confed Trail from St. Peters to ~ Marie is quite nice with PILES of blossoming apple trees and beautiful views of the bay. #PEI

Matt, wearing a dark tee and shorts along with a bike helmet, standing beside his bike. He is on a flat gravel trail with the deep blue of the bay peeking through the trees on the right side. The sky is blue with wispy clouds.

🎂 @matteffinturner.bsky.social, Happiest Birthday 💕Thank you so much for everything you do for me, for your friends and family, for the pets, for your team, for strangers - your gentle, generous spirit is so beautiful. (And thank you for always being down to be silly - you rock Hello Kitty 😁)

My heart is with the victims and survivors of the San Diego mosque shooting. It is not enough to avoid causing harm; we *must* actively engage in interrupting and countering harm we witness. Letting jokes and microaggressions slide provides the foundations upon which escalating violences flourish.

We biked from Brackley Beach to Robinsons Island today - my first time on a bike in way longer than I care to admit - we did great! (Matt's an old pro, ofc) And tonight, we had a campfire under cotton candy skies 🍭

Two bikes and helmets on a small cliff area overlooking the ocean. The sky is bright blue with big fluffy white clouds. There is a picnic table in the foreground.

Kelly is taking a selfie, smiling, behind her is the sign for Robinsons Island National Park area. Matt stands beside it with his bike, his hands in his pockets.

A wooden barn is in the right hand side with trees there and to the left. In the middle is a series of fields. The sky is full of clouds that are bright pink and soft purple.

Envy is just love knocked off balance... I love this 🥰 I've met all these women and they are all wonderful.

Praise the woman in the pink fem coat or the one with short hair slicked back like a fox. Praise the one in leather. Praise the one in heels. Praise the one in ball caps and neckties. The one in nothing at all. Praise the crass one, the dimpled one, the angry one. Praise the woman who screams into the wet throat of night. Praise her who speaks so soft, it hurts. Praise them whose hands are full of flowers or babies or engines or hot hammers of rage. Envy is just love knocked off balance so praise the woman who moves like butter. Curves on curves with an appetite for honey. J. Sullivan.

New profile pic, felt pretty Saturday night 😊

Our girl @char-lene.bsky.social is having a birthday this week! 😍 Her birthday is always the nicest start to summer 🏵️ I'm so lucky to know and love her ❤️Happy Birthday darling.

An image of a table covered in "happy birthday" confetti. There is a bowl of gummies with a "Happy Birthday" cake topper in it; a colourful bowl of jelly beans, a metal bowl with a bag of dill pickle chips, a Birthday Girl pink tiara, and a beautiful chocolate cake with "Happy Birthday Charlene" and a special slice covered in icing flowers for the birthday girl.

Charlene in the foreground making a face with her Birthday Girl tiara on. Behind her, Aaron smiles, in sunglasses.

Kelly take a photo of her, Matt, and Keith. Kelly is smiling and partially cut off in the photo, Matt is smiling brightly in a black hoodie (and he's wearing a glow stick necklace), and Keith is making the devil horns rock on hand gesture. Behind them, the sun is setting over fenced in farm fields.

A bright orange fire burns hot in a firepit with a barn, hedgerow behind. The sun is setting so the sky is shades of pink, orange, and purple.

Spring in the evening 💕 (I am always so happy to see the Farm Centre bees every year!)

Five bees and the butts of two other bees are visible at the entrance of a beehive at the Farm Centre. You can see large pollen sacs on one of the bees.

Bright yellow daffodils, up close, with the setting sun lighting them up.

A(n almost) full Flower moon, a delicious supper made together, piggie friends, an early Beltane fire, CBC reports the North Atlantic right whales have had 23 calves this year (the most since 2009)... it's been a lovely Thursday night 💕

This place holds my heart; an Island so magical that the sand itself reflects the beauty of the heavens.

Image of foam on reddish sand, the sand smooth as glass with the sheen of water across it reflecting the blue of the sky. In the distance, ocean surf rolls.
