December 2010 - different

December started with more snow in southern Ontario than here on the shore of the Bay of Chaleur in northern New Brunswick. Then the winds came. They brought record breaking amounts of rain but still no snow.

We watched in awe. Our log home stood firm and muffled the sounds of the winds and waves. A tour of the neighbourhood showed us what wind and water can do.

Those high waves moved rocks that weighed a ton.

The combination of heavy rain, high winds and shallow roots also moved this grove of cedars. It's up the street from Gite Toutes Saisons B&B. Phil and I will be watching to see how these trees fare. As of today we can still see the grass! 
A different December!
