Chocolate Lake
Just a heads-up for anyone heading to Chocolate Lake with kids.
Yesterday, the lifeguards found a syringe buried under the sand before anyone stepped on it. Huge credit to them—they probably prevented a serious injury.
This is getting ridiculous. Kids should be able to play in the sand without the risk of finding used needles. The addiction crisis is real, but the public shouldn’t have to accept dangerous waste being left in parks and beaches as normal.
Please keep an eye on your kids and watch where they’re playing.

Guards at Peggy’s Cove commended for quick actions…
From Nova Scotia Buzz:
‘Two guards at Peggys Cove are being commended for their quick actions. Amandeep Singh and Prabhleen Singh responded to the Peggys Cove Black Rocks area on May 23. Amandeep performed CPR on an unconscious 16-year-old, helping restore the youth’s breathing with support from a nurse. Prabhleen assisted at the scene until emergency services arrived. Amandeep said first aid and CPR training gave them the confidence to act quickly, noting emergencies can happen at any time. The guards at the famous lighthouse help keep visitors safe through education, communication and on-site intervention.’
Good on ‘em!

Grocery stores feel so hostile since the pandemic
Just a bit of a rant here, but does anyone else feel like grocery stores have become hostile? It's at the point where I put off shopping for as long as possible, and have changed to more dried/canned foods to avoid frequent trips.
You have to push through security gates on the way in and out, stores close at 10PM, you have to put your items in the bagging area after scanning them, nothing's really that big a deal but for some reason it just feels miserable. I miss the pre-pandemic days when I could go out at 1AM and buy food, you just walk into the store without waiting at gates, and you scan an item then put it back in your bag.
All minor things but it just makes life a little more tedious and dreadful. (And then of course there's the prices, but that's too much for one post haha.)
