Corona Virus Close to Home Yet Far Away ( Profiles in Courage)

Our hearts go out to all people experiencing the suffering around Covid-19

And our gratitude to all who are doing their best to minimize its negative effects  and to help us through this  process from the front lines.  There is courage, compassion and peristent hard work on both sides of the line.

Like Whiff, of “Whiff’s Lodge,” Anna is an anesthesiologist.  While balancing married life with 3 kids at home, she’s spending 99% of her work time seeing patients and offering training in a large city hospital serving two states.     Anna’s team has trained over 150 doctors, nurses and a other  patient care workers on procedures for dealing with Covid-19 using available equipment and techniques.  One tip from Dr. Anna: a big “yes”! to the utility of masks worn wherever social distancing is required.  Personal observations and “studies” confirm

Meanwhile Life  at Cabot Shores

Nature connection is there for us and perhaps enhanced during global pandemics.    The full moon and its tides happen on schedule.  You can see below a night photo.

And a recent flood was caused by extreme rains matched by snow melt up Indian Brook.  For a while the Flying Moose Yurt looked

more like a Floating Moose Yurt.

Mostly we’ve been serving essential workers across healthcare, the power grid, construction, education and even food distribution services.  A  number of folks have done their 14 day self-isolation here, with the ability to go outside and connect with nature and each other, while having meals delivered safely to their lodging.  Slowly other Nova Scotia guests are coming now that they can visit provincial and municipal parks.  A number of local hikes, even on property, are described here.

With social distancing, it is possible now to hike, kayak/canoe/standup paddle,  walk the Eagle Feather beach and even fish in the Atlantic, Church Pond or along Indian Brook.

 

Wish you Could Be here?

But the timing is inconvenient?  Too far to drive?  Border not passable?  So buy  a gift certificate for yourself, for family, for a friend, for a colleauge (you name the amount and we’ll pay the tax on it on orders through May 31st, 2020).  Visit anytime in the next year!
