Times-Advocate, 1979-07-11, Page 6watched the sunset over the
ocean and saw gulls
swooping near the shore,. A
few hundred yards away a
fisherman repaired his net.
We didn't notice the absence
of tv and radio; the ocean
provided all the en-
tertainment we needed.
The lack of pollution was
another welcome change.
The sea breezes, which are
described as "bracing" and
"invigorating", sent us
digging in our luggage for
heavy sweaters and jackets
even though the date was
early June.
The weather, especially
the fog, is unpredictable, but
the Maritimers have a
philosophy concerning the
fog which explains the
relaxing atmosphere of
Peggy's Cove and other
Nova Scotia fishing villages:
"The fog comes and goes
at will. Don't begrudge it.
Wish instead that you were
as free!"

Refresh in summer
with fresh plums
Fresh, juicy Ontario
plums are indeed cool
summer refreshers. Mouth-
watering, chin-dripping
good, describes these little
summer fruits perfect for
snacks, desserts and pic-
nics.
Food specialists at the On-
tario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food in-
form us that the first On-
tario plums available are
the yellow varieties. The
Early Goldens will appear
first around the middle of
July. The Shim variety
follows about two weeks
later. The Burbank, a red
plum, arrives around the
first part of August. The
season for early plums lasts
about three or four weeks.
Later plums (blue varieties)
will follow near the end of
August and continue into
September.
When choosing yellow
plums, judge their maturity
by their color. A deep yellow
indicates a mature plum. If
the plum is pale green, it
may not ripen very well or
have the same full flavor as
the ones with full yellow
color.
The Early Golden plum is
a firm, round, golden,
freestone plum with a high
red blush, The Shiro plum is
a round, yellow plum with a
pink blush. It is very juicy
and larger than the Early
Goldens,
You can purchase these
early plums by the pound, or
in two and four-quart
baskets.
By ELAINE TOWNSHEND
After four days of driving
through busy Ontario and
Quebec travellers enjoyed
the slower pace of scenic
Nova Scotia.
The province would be an
island if not for the 28
kilometre (17,5 mile) isth-
mus which links it to New
Brunswick. No part of the
province is more than 56
kilometres (35 miles)
fromthe sea and its more
than 7,400 kilometre (4,000
mile) coastline has more
than 100 lighthouses and fog
alarms.
To really appreciate the
beauty of Nova Scotia,
visitors must leave the Trans
Canada and travel on ar-
terial routes around the
province. Tourists could
explore the area for days and
still not see everything.
Joan and I drove through
Halifax and along the
southern coast to Peggy's
Cove - a fishing village that
we had been told was a
"must" for our itinerary. We
were not disappointed.
A few small neat houses
are strung along the bold
rocky coast, and small
fishing boats are tied to
weather-beaten wharves. On
top of a massive granite
ledge overlooking the village
is an old lighthouse. Peggy's
Cove has the distinction of
being the first Canadian Post.
Office located in a
lighthouse.
If visitors use their
imaginations, the rock
formations become a
Whale's Back, A Devil's
Armchair and Basin, a
dancing Rock, a Horseshoe,
a bear and other
phenomenon.
A restaurant near the
Lighthouse specializes in
seafood at reasonable prices.
Peggy's Cove has been
called a photographers' and
artists' paradise. Paintings
and works by local artists
are displayed in the "Marine
Studio", which was built in
1850 as a general store.
William deGarthe, one of
Canada's foremost artists
and a resident of Peggy's
Cove, painted two beautiful
murals for St. Johns
Anglican Church in the
village. One shows Christ
walking on water and
calming the sea; the setting
is Peggy's Cove with
Lighthouse Point in the
background. The second
mural depicts 'a group of
fishermen at the mercy of a
turbulent sea.
Except for a provincial
parking lot and the
Lighthouse, all the property
in Peggy's Cove is privately
owned by the residents.
Visitors are asked to respect
the residents' land, and thus
far, they seem to be doing it.
The rustic beauty of the
fishing villages is untouched.
Peggy's Cove has no
overnight accommodations
for tourists, but Indian
Harbour approximately
three kilometres west has a
motel and several cottages,
and a view as enchanting as
the one at Peggy's Cove.
Joan and I found a cabin
that seemed almost perched
on the edge of the ocean.
From a back porch, we
The Blyth Summer
Festival opened two plays,
"This Foreign Land" and
"I'll Be Back for You Before
Midnight" in the past week,
but that doesn't mean that
the actors and staff of the
Festival can relax.
Rehearsals start this week
for the next two offerings of
the season.
"McGillicuddy's Lost
vveekend",which opens Ju-
ly 24, is the story of a small
town police constable whose
first holiday in years is
ruined by a series of
hilarious misadventures.
Layne Coleman plays the
harried constable, and Anne
Anglin, Angie Gei, Peter
Elliott and Mary Ann Coles
are the townspeople involved
in the play's outrageous'
antics.
The same sharp-edged wit
that made "The Shortest
Distance Between Two
Paints" and "His Own Boss"
so popular with audiences in
past years is sure to make
fans for Keith Roulston's
latest play.
The fourth play of
the season, James Nichol's
"Child" opens August 3.
Festival veteran Kate
Trotter plays a distraught
mother who waits with her
husband, played by San
Malkin, while a search goes
on for their missing child.
Seana McKenna and Peter
Snell complete the cast as
friends of the couple who
participate in the uneasy
vigil. The play examines the
changes in relationships that
are brought on by a family
tragedy. Those who
remember the haunting
quality of the 1978 production
of "Gwendoline" will not
want to miss the latest of-
fering by James Nichol.
Tickets for all per-
formances are going rapidly.
Week end and matinee
performances for some
dates are nearing capacity,
although there are still good
tickets for all dates.

It's salad time in Ontario!
That Means cool,

Food specialists at the On-
tario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food tell us
there are plenty of fresh
Ontario-grown vegetables to
choose from, enough to
make an interesting and
different salad every night
of the week.
A good start to a tossed
vegetable salad is fresh
iceberg or romaine lettuce,
or spinach. To these tasty
beginnings add any of a
number of choices - green
bunching onions, radishes,
celery, bunching carrots,
cooked green and wa x ed

cucumbers, tomatoes or
