Hours Of Fun

Uploaded: July 02, 2008

Description

Photo taken of our Grandson, Michael @ Parlee Beach.
Parlee Beach is a beach and provincial park on the east coast of New Brunswick, Canada, located on the Northumberland Strait at Shediac, near Moncton. Known for having the warmest salt water north of Virginia, it is one of NB's most popular recreational areas, having attracted as many as 25,000 visitors on particularly hot days. It has an annual visitation of over 1,000,000, although this is almost entirely in the summer months, when Shediac's tourist season is most active and the area's 2,000-plus cottages are occupied.
It was named in 1959 after T. Babbitt Parlee, the former New Brunswick Provincial Minister of Municipal Affairs

Roxanne- Good morning my dear friend. First, thank you for a history of the park. I love the story behind a picture and know this is one of your favorite places so find it interesting to know about it.
Give a kid, a bucket, a shovel, and some sand, and their imagination will do the rest. Hours of fun, but also hours of creativity.
Fabulous picture of Michael getting that bucket loaded for his building project. Excellent lighting and clarity. Brilliant colors and sensational details.
Excellent capture and work
Have a marvelous day, enjoy it with gusto, take care to be safe. #6131739
