Picnic Henry ✨

i’m looking at my list of muses ( as i cry bc i realize i have to remake a lot of icons ) and figured i’d just jot this down really quickly before i go to bed... or at least try to because i really should but i want... the ashen wolves dlc... to download... so i was wasting time waiting for it and it’s still not here...

as far as feh goes, i hc seasonal alts to only be outfit swaps for a festival or ball or beach trips or what have you. legendary/mythic/brave alts are the same way because the idea of brave versions of a character being ‘created’ by the hopes and dreams of the people sounds... dumb to me. if a pre-existing character like, say, lucina is given the title of brave or legendary, it is simply new power bestowed upon the character. 

the only time there will be multiples of a character in the order of heroes is if they are from significantly different points in time (ie; inigo vs laslow, owain vs odin, the robins vs the grimas, hector vs hector+lilina duo hero), explicitly stated to be from another world with vastly different circumstances (brave camilla who is queen of nohr or brave veronica who was explicitly stated to be Not Our Veronica, og!azura and shigure vs performing arts!azura and shigure, who are heavily implied to be from conquest specifically).

the askr trio alts are simply alfonse, sharena, and now anna dressing up. i do not hc that bruno stayed with the order in a bunny suit; he left after the festival but will come again when the spring banners return for veronica’s sake.

obviously if there are two of any given character in zenith, they can dress up for festivals too if they want.

so here’s my take on every character with an alt in feh so far, whoops-- my muses are bolded! this is relevant to coralin’s order of heroes so i figure i might as well get it out of the way.

alfonse -- regular alfonse, spring alfonse, and new year’s alfonse are the same character. (lif is also alfonse, but obviously from a different time and world and so different that he barely counts anymore. if you want to split hairs, though, there are two alfonses.)

alm -- he’s actually kind of tricky. original alm might be his own version as he’s implied to be from earlygame while brave, legendary, and valentine’s alm are the same unit. this one is up to interpretation, but given og!alm has falchion for now i’m saying there is only one alm in zenith. there may be two. 

anna -- regular anna and new year’s anna are the same character.

azura -- original, legendary, and new year’s azura are the same character. performing arts azura is conquest azura specifically, then young azura is obviously young azura. there are three azuras in zenith.

 berkut -- dancer and original berkut are the same character. fallen berkut (+vestal rinea!) are a separate character. there are two berkuts in zenith, and two rineas by extension.

the black knight and zelgius are separate characters if only because they’re stated to be the por and rd incarnations of each, and there is a timeskip between the two games. no one is confused by the black knight any more, though. there are two zelgius...es... in zenith.

bruno is the story bruno. he showed up for the festival and left when it or the tempest concluded, whichever came first. he is not in coralin’s order of heroes.

caeda and bride caeda are the same character.

original camilla, spring camilla, summer camilla, new year’s camilla, and hot spring camilla are the same character. brave camilla and dream camilla are both separate incarnations, the latter being baby azura’s dreams given form. there are three camillas in zenith.

camus and sirius are two separate characters as they are from two different points in time. there are two camus...es... and if we get zeke there will be a third.

catria i’m up in the air for. original and spring catria are DEFINITELY the same person, but falcon knight!catria may be from further in the timeline, making her separate. i’m saying fuck it, they’re all technically falcon knight!catria, but this is up to interpretation. there may be two catrias.

cecilia and winter cecilia are the same character.

much like alm, celica is very much open to interpretation. original, legendary, brave, and valentine’s celica may be the same character, while fallen celica is separate. or original, leg/brave/valentine’s is the same character while fallen and original are different. there are at minimum two celicas, maybe three.

chrom, spring chrom, horse chrom, and winter chrom are all one individual, though horse chrom is up to interpretation. there may be two chroms in zenith. 

conrad and valentine’s conrad are the same individual.

cordelia, bride cordelia, askr cordelia, and summer cordelia are the same individual.

male corrin and new year’s m!corrin are the same individual, and i hc f!corrin may also dress up for new years if she pleases. dream!corrin is baby azura’s dreams given form. there are two male corrins in askr.

female corrin and summer f!corrin are the same individual. dream corrin is baby azura’s dreams given form and fallen corrin is from an alternate world. there are three female corrins in askr.

delthea and tatarrah-possessed delthea are two separate individuals.

dorcas and halloween dorcas are the same individual.

eir and new year’s eir are the same individual. 

eirika, legendary eirika, and winter eirika are the same individual. mage eirika is separate. there are two eirikas in zenith.

elincia and festival elincia are... i’m tentatively saying the same character even if two different games are listed. elincia is queen by the time of radiant dawn and her kimono alt title is “estival princess”, so... yeah. there just aren’t enough changes to justify there being two.

elise, hot springs elise, and summer elise are the same character.

eliwood, brave eliwood, legendary eliwood, and valentine’s eliwood are the same character.

ephraim, legendary ephraim, and brave ephraim are the same individual. the ephraim that appears with lyon as a duo hero is a separate one from pre-fe8. there are two ephraims in askr.

fae and winter fae are the same individual.

faye and valentine’s faye are the same individual.

felicia and picnic felicia are the same individual. 

fjorm, new year’s fjorm, and bride fjorm are the same individual.

flora and picnic flora are the same individual.

frederick and summer frederick are the same individual.

gaius and summer gaius are the same individual.

genny and picnic genny are the same individual.

gunnthra, new year’s gunnthra, and summer gunnthra are the same individual, but not the story gunnthra who perished at surtr’s hands. we have seen two gunnthras, but only one is playable.

hector, valentine’s hector, brave hector, and legendary hector are the same individual. halloween hector is a parent, therefore from a later point in time and a separate person. there are two hectors in zenith.

helbindi and summer helbindi are the same individual, but not the story helbindi who is assumed to have died in muspell. ... actually, no, he IS that helbindi because i like to pretend we live in a nice world. regardless there’s still only one of him.

henry and halloween henry are the same individual.

hinoka, kinshi hinoka, and hot springs hinoka are the same individual, but gee hinoka why does intsys let you have two mounts?

hrid and new year’s hrid are the same individual.

ike, brave ike, and valentine’s ike are the same individual. legendary ike is older, therefore separate. there are two ikes in zenith. 

inigo and laslow are separate characters from two different points in time.

innes and summer innes are the same individual.

ishtar and dancer ishtar are the same individual.

jaffar and winter jaffar are the same individual.

laegjarn, new year’s laegjarn, and summer laegjarn are the same individual, but not the story laegjarn who perished in muspell.

laevatein, new year’s laevatein, and summer laevatein are the story laevatain. (or she may not be, but there is still only one of her.)

lief and legendary lief are the same character.

leo, summer leo, and picnic leo are the same character.

lethe and new year’s lethe are the same character.

lilina, valentine’s lilina, and summer lilina are the same character. young lilina in hector’s duo hero is a separate character. there are two lilinas in askr.

linde and summer linde are the same character.

lissa and winter lissa are the same character.

loki and spring loki are two separate individuals. spring loki is story loki and not part of the order of heroes. there are two lokis in zenith.

lucina, legendary lucina, brave lucina, and spring lucina are all the same individual. masked lucina, “marth”, is the lucina from the tempest trials and not part of the order of heroes. my main lucina heroes verse, incidentally, focuses on tempest trial lucina. regardless, there are two lucinas in zenith.

lukas and picnic lukas are the same character.

lyn, nifl lyn, bride lyn, valentine’s lyn, legendary lyn, brave lyn, and summer lyn are all the same character.

lyon and the lyon who appears in the duo hero with ephram are two separate characters, as the latter is pre-fe8. there are two lyons in zenith.

mareeta and fallen mareeta are separate characters. there are two mareetas in zenith.

marisa and spring marisa are the same character.

marth, groom marth, legendary marth, and winter marth are the same character.

mia and halloween mia are the same character.

micaiah, brave micaiah, and festival micaiah are all the same character... though i could make an argument that brave micaiah is separate because of the lil ghostly yune. there may be two micaiahs in zenith.

mist and valentine’s mist are the same character.

nephenee and dancer nephenee are the same character.

zero and halloween zero are the same character.

ninian and bride ninian are the same character.

nino, winter nino, and pegasus nino are the same individual, though i’d be willing to make a case for pegasus nino. there may be two ninos in zenith.

nowi and halloween nowi are the same character.

owain and odin are two separate characters from two separate points in time.

olivia, performing arts olivia, and flier olivia are the same character.

olwen and thunderhead olwen are the same character.

reinhardt, sword reinhardt, and dancer reinhardt are the same character, though i’d be willing to make a case for sword reinhardt. there may be two reinhardts in zenith.

female robin and summer robin are the same individual, though she may dress up for winter if she pleases. grima is a separate individual. there is one female robin and two grimas in zenith.

male robin and winter robin are the same individual, though he may dress up for summer if he pleases. grima is a separate individual. there is one male robin and two grimas in zenith.

roy, brave roy, legendary roy, and valentine’s roy are the same individual.

ryouma, festival ryouma, hot springs ryouma, and legendary ryouma are the same individual. gee, ryouma, why is intsys letting you AND hinoka get two mounts?

sakura, halloween sakura, hot springs sakura, are the same character.

sanaki and bride sanaki are the same character because there aren’t enough differences to justify them being separate despite the game saying so.

selkie and new year’s selkie are the same individual.

sharena, spring sharena, and the new year’s sharena from alfonse’s duo unit are the same individual.

shigure and performing arts shigure are separate characters, as performing shigure is implied to be from conquest like his performing mother.

soren and valentine’s soren are the same character.

sothis and winter sothis are the same character.

brave veronica and spring veronica are separate individuals. spring veronica is story veronica and does not join the order of heroes. there are two veronicas in zenith.

xander, spring zander, festival xander, and summer xander are the same individual. veronica has a xander of her own, even if we have no idea what happened to him. assuming that xander survived surtr, there are two xanders in zenith but only one is with the order of heroes.

ylgr and summer ylgr are the same character.

yune and the yune in brave micaiah’s alt may be separate. there may be two yunes in zenith but only one acts individually while the other remains with micaiah. ... wait shit doesn’t regular micaiah have a bird yune too? maybe there’s three??? send help.

zephiel and winter zephiel are from different points in time, making them two different characters.

Phew! Obviously the links are subject to being removed at any time but thought it would be nice to have a reference list! Ok that’s all folks!

any tips on building bulk mages?

Of course! Bulky mages are my favs to work with, with them taking over were your squishy mages can’t. One thing to remember is the bulky mages will often NOT be attacking first. They bait out the enemy hit and then they dish out the damage afterwards. Since everyone seems to be bullying Leo’s new alt I’ll go with an example set up for him.

For starters here’s normal Leo compared to Picnic Leo

Picnic Leo trades off some HP and a bit of Res for some Atk and Def, but they’re still likely to be very similar to work with. Both have access to horse buffs or Tactic buffs and arguably Picnic Leo has a better color to work with. If the common of the Rein/Lyn/Veronica combo is a problem for you for example, he  can be built to handle all 3 if you have a Spare Eir to give him Mystic Boost. Since the Unit builder doesn’t have him yet I’m just gonna type out this build that can be used as an example.

Using his Defaults and what could cheaply go with them:

Weapon: Sandwiches!+ (Res or Def Refine: Hp+2, Res+3 or Def +3) The effect gives him +4 Atk/Def when attacked which is what we want for this.

Assist: Draw Back or Reposition. I tend to use Reposition for Bulky mages since they often need to move squishies outta the way.

Special: For this I’d swap out his Glimmer for Bonfire or Iceberg, simply cause we’re capitalizing on his defenses here

A Skill: Distant Def 3. He comes with this. This is perfect for him to be a ranged tank.

B Skill: Quick Riposte 3. He comes with this. Again exactly what he needs.

C Skill: This one is pretty flexible. It’s best to choose this one based off the team you have.

Seal: Distant Def 3 (or Warding stance if you’re gonna strictly have him go after other mages)

With this set up, when he’s attacked from a distance, Leo will have (in theory, I must test this when we get him) +16 to his Def and Res in combat. Without accounting for the weapon refine he’ll have 43 Def and 40 Res when this happens. These are in combat buffs so this goes up further when he has a visible buff. If it’s from horse emblem or a combo of def/res tactic or the wave skills it’ll be 49 def and 46 res. I think it might be better to stack Drives or Wards on him to avoid Panic Ploy effects. (Throw in Kaden’s weapon effect and oh boy we have a party). Also Brave Lyn’s Bow effect will not work since it only targets visible buffs. This is all on an unmerged version of this Leo.

So with these combat buffs, it’s why I suggest switching to Bonfire or Iceberg. With Quick Riposte, if he’s attacked by a unit that’s faster than him, the special will trigger that round and 90% of the time it will kill the unit that attacks him since you’re looking at around 20+ extra damage going out. Naturally, try to be wary of foes that nullify follow-ups or are around the same spd as him. One wings of Mercy unit can ruin things pretty fast.

The ranged units who’ll likely be able to pose a considerable threat when he’s stacked like this and they attack first are:

Festival Micaiah (And even then she’d need to be merged and buffed- tested with my TD!Henry who has 47 res and gets effected by her tome effect)

 Celica if she’s at the HP threshold for her refine

Triangle Adept Reds

Units with Keen Rauorwolf (Pretty rare in Arena modes, usually found in the GHB, BHB or Legendary Hero battles)

Both Floras due to her high res and weapon effects

Spring Palla (weapon effect)

Hot Spring Elise (weapon effect)

Adrift Camilla (If weapon effect is active)

Julius(His weapon effect makes it likely he’ll survive)

A buffed and refined Lilina. 

Match ups like that are better left for his teammates to handle. Also as a precaution, be wary around red Bladetomes, especially if their specials are likely to activate.

Anyway Pinic Leo, with a very affordable build, can be very effective. The only issue he’d have with say Brave Veronica or Pain+ Healers would be that they’ll prevent him from countering and possibly attack again if they get danced for and that could be a decent chunk of his HP lost even with the buffs. This can worry can be negated a bit with Mystic boost, but I feel that’s a skill better suited for a different build as with Mystic boost I’d feel you’d want to take more advantage of the fact that it also negates Dragon’s adaptive damage.

Once I get him in my barracks though, I’ll be able to fully test how he handles. Give me a little bit of time and I can work out a build that can work if you’re willing to off Takumi or Winter Tharja for Close counter.

2019 senesinin son zamanlarından gelen Avustralya yangını ve ardında ekolojik anlamda bıraktığı derin yaralarla uğraşılan zamanlarla girdiğimiz 2020 senesi başlayalı daha bir ayı bulmamışken, kendi ülkemizde doğa için senelerini veren Hayrettin Karaca’nın vefatı, Elazığ Depremi ve hala sürmekte olan çalışmalar, ünlü basketçi Kobe Bryant ve bıraktığı basketbol mirasını kaldığı yerden emin adımlarla devam ettiren kızı Gigi'nin vefatı ve Çin'de ortaya çıkan, etkilerini başka noktalarda da göstermeye başlayan virüs, herkesin duygularını ve psikolojisini ne yazık ki şimdiden alt üst etmeye yetti.

Piknik MOTOryzacyjny w Inowrocławiu to małe wieczne perełki – fiaciki i wielkie youngtimery i oldtimery.

Tęsknimy za Zlotem PRL do jakiego przywykliśmy już z lat ubiegłych, ale cieszymy się, że udało się zorganizować piknik motoryzacyjny, który dostarczył wiele pozytywnych wrażeń.

Renziehausen Park is a community park in McKeesport.  It is the site of McKeesport’s Fourth of July Fireworks celebration and International Village; a culture fair celebrating food from around the world.  The locals wait all year for International Village.  All the families in my area looked forward to it.  Renziehausen Park is often called Renzie.  It was originally named for Sophia Everet Renziehausen.  Her husband Gottlieb, a first generation immigrant, owned a haberdashery in McKeesport, which was run by her son Henry after Gottlieb passed away.  Her other son, Frederick, operated Large whiskey, helping to build the family’s fortune.  After their mother’s death, Henry and Frederick donated green spaces around the city of Pittsburgh in her memory.  Renzie is one of my favorite places to play.  They have baseball fields, tennis courts, basketball courts, even bocce.  Sometimes there will be performances in the bandshell, which is supported by the Lions’ Club.

The park houses the Garden Club of McKeesport.  They have a lovely garden that is very pleasant to stroll through.  Just walking through a park is a lost art.  We do not often take the time to walk slowly, smell the posies.  There are many varieties of flowers carefully tended by the garden club’s members.  The garden is used locally as a backdrop for portraits.  They host events that are free to the public, including gardening tips and a proper tea.  You can check them out at the Garden Club’s website.

It is also home to the McKeesport Regional History and Heritage Center.  The exhibits are open to the public Tuesday – Friday 10-4 and Saturday 10-3.  Every item in the museum was donated.  You can read more about the museum at their website.

For the little ones, there are playgrounds and a splash park that sprays until 6 p.m.  All the kids love the splash park!  It has a fence around it, so if you have very little ones it’s easy to make sure they didn’t walk too far away.  The splash park is definitely the hit for any of the kids.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

There are eight outdoor pavilions that can be rented for picnics, or you can stop by to have your own little picnic days the groves are not rented.  There is an indoor building as well called the Jacob Woll Pavilion which can be used for events year-round.  You can read more about them on McKeesport City’s website.

If you are looking for a fun place to spend some time outside this summer in and around Pittsburgh, subscribe to my blog using your email address to get notifications every time we update our site with something exciting.  Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @gryffinslanding.  Most importantly, have fun and live like every day is an adventure.

Just about now you may be thinking of where to go for your summer vacation. If an east coast holiday is in your future, I have put together my second annual list of favourite places I visited. I hope you enjoy them. (see here for  Top 20 Maritime Outdoor Escapes 2017  edition).

20. Bouctouche, New Brunswick.

Just 30 minutes south of Kouchibouquac National Park and and 45 minutes north of Moncton.  If you are doing the Acadia Coast Drive make sure to check out Bouctouche.  Here the Irving Eco-Center boasts great bird-watching and wildlife.  Meander along the boardwalk perched above the sand dunes and watch great blue herons wade in the shallows. Bring a lawn chair and towel – the beach is great too.

  View from the tower. Irving Eco Center, Bouctouche New Brunswick

19. Port Hastings, Nova Scotia, 

Should be your first stop on Cape Breton Island. Not only was the Canso Causeway an engineering wonder of its day, the view to Porcupine Mountain is amazing. Watch the boats pass through the canal between the Strait of Canso and the Northumberland Strait. You can walk out on the rocky point of land and take a photo at marker zero of the Ceilidh Coastal Trail. With a little luck you may see whales, seals, eagles and gulls congregate to feast on what the churning waters serve up.  Please see Cape Breton- Rediscovered Part 1 and  Cape Breton- Part 2-A Tourist at Home for further reading on the area.

18. Saint John, New Brunswick.

What’s not to love about Saint John? It’s geologically fascinating, historically important, has a trendy nightlife, lots for food lovers to take in and one of the hottest cruise ship ports around. Make sure to check out the City Market, Reversing Falls, Rockwood and Irving nature parks.  for further reading:

17. Miramichi, New Brunswick

Miramichi makes it to my list for the second year in a row. I can’t get enough of the beautiful scenery.  Kouchibouquac National Park is 20 minutes south for camping and exploring. Hike in the French Fort Cove, catch a boat tour on the Miramichi River from Ritchie Wharf.  Learn about the hardships and courage of the Acadian people during the expulsion at Wilson’s Point and Beaubears Island national historic sites. Some of the best salmon fishing there is. Also a stop on the Via Rail train heading both westward and east towards Moncton and Halifax. Further reading. The Miramichi River Route, as I would do it.

16. Heartland, New Brunswick 

I came here for two things; the world’s longest covered bridge and The Covered Bridge Potato chip factory. Enjoy both while you are visiting. Please read Bridges To Cross, 2017 New Brunswick

  Hartland Covered Bridge The world’s longest covered bridge

15. St Peters, Cape Breton, NS.

An epic bucket list “must do” for sailors is to traverse the locks of the canal – within minutes you are transported from the Atlantic Ocean to Bras d’Or Lake.  The area was home to the Mi’kmaq people for thousands of years before the first European settlers came in the late 1580’s.  There is usually a ceilidh or festival going on somewhere. Nearby Point Michaud beach is excellent.  Further posts Cape Breton- Part 3. Mowat and St Peters.

14. Sackville, New Brunswick

This is bird-watching paradise. Land that was drained for farming by the early Acadian settlers has been reclaimed and is now  home to a waterfowl park.  The surrounding trail conjoins with the trans-Canada trail, so if you choose to you can walk or cycle all the way to Cape Jourmaine. Two national historic sites, several provincial historic sites, home to Mount Alison University and its fantastic library. There are dozens of artisans and craftspeople, it is a cultural playground. For further reading; Searching around Sackville, New Brunswick Part 1

Sackville, New Brunswick waterfowl park and so much more

13. Tignish, Nova Scotia

I came here to see Tignish Dock Provincial Park. Henry Ketchum had an ambitious idea to create a rail line and lifting bridge across the Chignecto isthmus from Fort Lawrence on the Bay of Fundy, to Tignish on the Northumberland shore. The ill-fated historic Chignecto Marine Transport Railway ran out of money before it was completed and was scrapped and dismantled to pay creditors. The provincial park pays tribute to its legacy.  It has a picnic area, toilets, a red sand beach and a suspension bridge. I loved it.

  12. Fredericton, New Brunswick

Fredericton, the capital of New Brunswick, is located on the banks of the Saint John River. What it lacks in size it makes up for in amenities. Theater, museums, cafes, pubs, parks, walking and cycling trails. A four-season vacation area. Please see further reading in my post My Fredericton, New Brunswick.

Black-eyed Susans in the botanical gardens of Odell Park

11. Springhill, Nova Scotia

If you have heard of Nova Scotia’s favourite daughter, Anne Murray, then you will want to go through her museum. It has a large collection of memorabilia including photos, accolades and videos from her career.  She usually visits town during Old Home Week in August each year. Make sure to go through the Springhill coal mine. You will feel what it was like to go underground in horrible working conditions and understand the fear many endured while being buried alive for days when the mine collapsed in the town’s famous mining disaster in 1958.  A poignant exhibit that left me shaken, yet so happy I went.

    10 Cape Jourmain National Wildlife Area, New Brunswick

Great hiking along the coastline to the lighthouse. I really enjoyed the views to the Confederation Bridge across to Prince Edward Island.  Lots of bird-watching and an excellent interpretive center.

Confederation Bridge from Cape Tormentine June 30th, 2017

9. Stanhope National Park, PEI

This is the land of of sand dunes, lighthouses and beaches. Go for a dip in the ocean, or kayak along the shore. Photograph birds nesting and endless sunsets. Take a drive along the gulf coast parkway to Dalvay-by-the sea. Only 25 minutes to Charlottetown.

Stanhope Beach inside PEI national park

8. Welsford, New Brunswick,

What a hidden gem. Make sure to see to see Welsford Falls and hike Bald Mountain. If you are more daring, rock climbers from all over come here to climb. For further reading; Welsford, New Brunswick. The Best of

    7. Victoria, PEI

A small, charming seaside community, old restored homes have been transformed into artists’ shops, chocolatiers, restaurants and museums. Be sure to see Prince Edward Island’s largest tree and if you sure-footed and not afraid of heights, climb the ladder to the top of the local lighthouse.

  6. Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island

Canada’s story started here and Charlottetown does our country proud.  Beautifully maintained heritage buildings,  seaside views and helpful residents to make you feel at home.  Dine al fresco on a patio on Victoria Row before taking in a production at the art center or just people-watch. A  very walk-able town.

        Charlottetown, Pedestrian area, cafes, artist shops patios in a historic district

    5. Cape George, Nova Scotia.

Called the “little Cabot Trail” for a reason,  the road hugs the bends of the coastline and climbs, affording magnificent views of the Northumberland  coast.  Hike to the lighthouse. I brought a lunch and enjoyed the views even in early March.

Cape George Lighthouse

4. Hampton, New Brunswick

This was one of my favourite places last year.  It had everything – scenery, a beautifully laid-out town filled with sculptures and historic buildings. The artisan quilt barn tour was fun to follow. Lots of hiking trails and famous for bird-watching.  I highly recommend Hampton.

Light House Park Hampton NB

  3. Fundy National Park New Brunswick

If they views aren’t enough to bring you here, how about the world’s highest tides, two covered bridges and miles of hiking trails. For a long hike go to Third Vault Falls or for a shorter one try Dickson Falls. There is a golf course, a hotel, cabins and plenty of like-minded folks enjoying nature.

Fundy National Park

2. Sussex, New Brunswick

I really enjoyed myself in Sussex.  Between searching for murals and covered bridges, I also found two of my favourite places to hike.  For further reading please read;

1. Fundy Trail Parkway

What can I say about this place? Home to the famous Fundy Footpath – 41 kilometers of wilderness trail along the Fundy coast. Listed as one of the 50 best hikes in the world. The scenery is breathtaking.  There are shorter hikes to waterfalls, rock formations and a sea-captain’s grave.  for more information please read The Fundy Trail Parkway, Is Not The Fundy National Park.

Man From Nebraska: A Hamster in Search of a Wizard

By Ross

What are the top five things that a hamster does?  Spin in his wheelie thing? Stay in his cage?  Or does he break out? This is essentially the question that playwright, Tracy Letts (August: Osage County) is putting out there for us to contemplate in this quiet meditation of life. The provocative play, Man From Nebraska, which opens…
