After the storm

Wow, what a night, it was so windy and so loud!  The winds are still up tonight, but not nearly as bad as last night. I read that the storm was almost level 1 hurricane status!  We did not have any damage, or lose power, but parts of Halifax lost power and some schools were closed as well, so I am very thankful! 

 Devin, Jeremy and I decided to head out this afternoon and watch the waves come in.

I hope this means some nice sea glass has washed in!  This is the best time to find treasures on the beach!

 

Ship sailing past Hangman's Beach, at the approach to Halifax harbour.  They used to hang pirates here on the beach, hence the name,  to warn others away and let them know they were not welcome here!  You can see the wild waves behind them, this harbour is quite calm, once in this narrow part.

 

 

 

Cold, windy and frothy seas!

 

 

 

 

Really interesting cloud formations today.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Car container ship  behind the house, about to enter the mouth of the harbour.  What a rocky wild ride they must have had!

 

 

  And here is wishing a Happy Thanksgiving to my friends celebrating in the U.S. today!  Hope it was a day filled with blessings and joy!
