Fact:
The Wild Blueberry
Nova Scotia's blueberries reach a global audience.
They are sold in more than 20 countries around the world, making a great contribution to our economy.
The wild blueberry is grown in five regions in Canada, and Nova Scotia is the largest producer in the country.
On January 11, 1996, the wild blueberry was officially declared the Provincial Berry of Nova Scotia.

Fact:
Stilbite
Stilbite was declared the provincial mineral in November 1999.
Stilbite is a variety of zeolite, mined mainly on the west coast of North America.
Nova Scotia has an abundance of the mineral, found in the Annapolis Valley region along the Bay of Fundy.
The mineral is composed of silica, sodium, potassium, aluminum and other elements.
Although it appears solid, it is actually a small honeycomb of pores.
Zeolites, including stilbite, can absorb up to 30 per cent of their dry weight in gasses and 90 per cent in hydrocarbons.
This allows the mineral to be used in oil spill clean-ups and in other industrial processes because of its ability to absorb odour and suppressants.
Another capability of stilbite is the ability to attract calcium and magnesium so that it can be used in water softening.
Joke:
Knock, knock
Who's there?

P.S. The kids like it it is on the edge for them
Joke (Just in case that was iffy):

Fact:
Agate
Agate is the official gemstone emblem of Nova Scotia. It was adopted in November 1999.
Native cultures used agate as a tool more than 10,000 years ago.
Today, it is used primarily for decorative jewellery or ornaments.
Agate is a type of quartz that is resistant to erosion. It possesses a variety of colours and forms.
Agate is also the birthstone for May, corresponding with the province's official flower, the mayflower.

Geography
Nova Scotia is 55,000 square kilometres in size.
The province of Nova Scotia is connected to the province of New Brunswick and the rest of Canada, by the 28 kilometre Isthmus of Chignecto.
The Canso Causeway joins Cape Breton Island with mainland Nova Scotia.
Nova Scotia’s coastline, if you stretched it out as far as it would go, is 7,400 kilometres in length. But the overall length of the province is actually only 575 kilometres.
The average width is 130 kilometres.
The highest point in Nova Scotia is at White Hill Lake in Victoria County, and is part of the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. It stands 530 metres above sea level.
The major rivers of Nova Scotia are the Annapolis, St. Mary’s, Medway, Mersey, Shubenacadie and Margaree. Shubenacadie is actually the longest river!
The largest lake in Nova Scotia is the Bras d’Or Lake in Cape Breton.

Many times growing up Dad told me that Santa was watching....
If I was not good I would not get anything for Christmas, and I would find Coal in my stocking....
Well it looks as if I have been very bad this year, for my Santa Mission has not arrived....
Maybe if I do some good deeds I will get a package?
DAD..... MOM...... can I help you with the laundry, dishes, shovel the walks?
Yes, Santa's sleigh is on it's way...
But when it arrives, that does not mean the end of being good!
FINALLY YES IM SO HAPPY believe it or not I was watching for the mailman wating to see if it had arrived!!
When I saw the four boxes he was carrying I figured that one of them had to be mine, yes the top box was indeed mine!!!!
I'm waitng for my mom to get out of the shower to open the gift but right now I can tell you it jingles.
Just wanted to post a picture or two:
MERRY CHRISTMAS
