It was a nice October day so Kerri went for a quick swim in the ocean.
This piper had not yet migrated.
Hopefully he will still make it.

Kerri became the sun to warm him up.
But she scared off the heron.
Lots of heron.
But not all of the heron.
Way out in the ocean there was a seal.
On the beach someone had been eating crab.
But they missed the best part.
The beach was also very scenic.
But a bit cold.
Kerri spent a lot of our time in the Maritimes playing with her food.
Matt preferred his seafood in gooier forms that are harder to play with.
Sometimes even gooified and placed between buns.
Or easy to eat with a knife and fork.
Kerri’s dinners required shielding.
Except once in a while she got fish.
And sometimes Matt got giant buckets of clams.
Or made Kerri share the lobster.
So many lobsters.
There were lots of creepy crawlies in the Maritimes too.
Some were very fuzzy.
Others surprisingly less fuzzy.
Apparently the rest left Kerri speechless.
Because she stopped writing there, and left the post saved on this laptop for almost 5 years.
So now she’s trying to figure out why there’s no space on the laptop, and finding it’s full of pictures of scary looking bugs.
Which she has surprisingly little memory of.
But she has to post it to make space for new adventures.
This doesn’t even appear to be a bug, it’s a fungus.
I don’t know what the heck this is. Too bad the picture is blurry.
This one is sharp and obviously taken on some kind of sign.
I think it’s the same kind of bug that freaked us out years later in Vancouver. I wonder if it has a better memory than we do?
The view left much to be desired.
The world’s largest lobster tried to eat us.
This was disappointing because we wanted to eat him.
But he was pretty scary so we left him alone.
