Chéticamp Rug Museum

We stopped for the night in Chéticamp at the Silver Lining Inn. Our room was an "accessible unit", very clean and very appropriate.

In the morning we visited the Chéticamp Rug Museum. Here we saw hooked rugs by Elizabeth LeFort. Her work is world renowned. She has created rugs for the Kennedys, for Lester Pearson, for Pierre Trudeau, and many others. Her work is absolutely amazing.

Chéticamp is an Acadian community. This tree represents the Acadian families.

This rug just seemed especially beautiful.
