LIFESTYLES

We all deserve clean air to breathe, safe water to drink, and a healthy community in which to raise our kids.

Summertime and seaside towns go hand-in-hand. Lockeport is a beach town and coastal port in Shelburne County. It is situated on a peninsula, surrounded by the ocean and connected to the mainland by the Crescent Beach Causeway. If Crescent Beach looks familiar, it just might be you caught a glimpse of it on the old Canadian $50 bill.

Most of us think of communication as speaking. We picture the person at the front of the room, the leader at the meeting, or the friend with the funny story.

In the past few weeks, the Saskatoon native and musical virtuoso Joni Mitchell was celebrating the 55th anniversary of her unshaken opus, Blue. Released on June 22, 1971.

Lane’s Privateer Inn in Liverpool, is steeped in a unique maritime seafaring history. The story behind the Inn is as remarkable as the food, service and atmosphere.

Summer on the South Shore is something to celebrate: fresh air, gardens in bloom, family visits, farmers’ markets, and time by the water. But for older adults, warmer weather can also bring added risks, including dehydration, overheating, and isolation.

Dock & Dine created a splash at their recent grand opening. Located in Clark’s Harbour, between Main Street and the wharf, they capture the perfect blend of fresh seafood and stunning working harbour views.

Almost everyone gets nervous before speaking in front of others. Surveys often place public speaking near the top of common fears, sometimes even above heights and spiders.

In 4-H, community is at the heart of everything we do.

Charlotte Lane is tucked into a side street, just off the historic waterfront of Shelburne. The restaurant is housed in a long narrow heritage building with a seasonal patio off the back. Inside you will find two dining rooms, one at the front of the house, the other at the rear. Two totally different vibes, both delightful.

Most families don’t recognize the need for support right away. It often begins with small changes. Groceries untouched in the fridge. A once-neat home becomes cluttered.
