Take time to reflect on all the positivity the day brought you.

Guests at the Seaside Shack and Nook get to watch these free-range cows graze the island, bask in the ocean, pose for the gram and create traffic jams. Oddly enough, they’re usually blocking exiting traffic and not incoming. This particular traffic cluster lasted about 15 minutes.

Many locals check the weather by where the cows are on the island. I’m still learning their patterns but they definitely like to go in the ocean early for a dip if it’s going to be a hot day. Please comment below if you know any of their patterns.

Want to see these free-range cows and all their cute calfs?
1. Do the Cabot Trail on Cape Breton, NS.
2. Visit in Chéticamp.
3. For the best daily view of their shenanigans or to get mooooed to sleep, book your stay on the water at Seaside Shacks. 👇🏻

This peaceful minute is brought to you by the most chill and stress free living creature I can think of. Many people fear these guys but fear is too often due to a lack of knowledge. So..

It lives in all oceans of the northern hemisphere and is very abundant.

I’ll never get tired of sunsets over the ocean. We’re in the East Coast on the western side of Cape Breton, so it’s kinda cheating. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Drive a couple minutes in either direction and it’s truly an ocean sunset.

Stillness. It seems to be as rare with people as the ocean. Remember to take at least a minute a day to do nothing but breathe.
