Welcome to my blog.


As you can see, I've had a long winter's nap. No blogging for a couple of months. But spring is in the air... snow is melting... it's time to get back to the keyboard. Hope you like the coming entries.

Family Fun Day 2013

It's been blowing a gale all weekend here in HV-GB but that didn't stop us from going ahead with our  Family Fun Day on Sunday.   

Nestled amongst the trees, we were sheltered from the wind and took advantage of the beautiful trails at the Birch Brook Nordic Ski Club.    With skiing, snowshoeing and sliding to choose from, the outdoor activities were great!   

This year skiing was by far the most popular!

The children returned from their excursions to take part in crafts. cards and other indoor activities like the much anticipated Easter Egg Hunt. The adults sipped a cuppa and enjoyed each other's company and   some  good   conversation.  Being something of a foodie, the Pot Luck Dinner was the highlight of my day -  ham, turkey, salads, dips, chili, caseroles, meatballs with rice and an absolutely delectable selection of desserts to top it all off !  Yes, it was well worth it.  Should have wonderful days like this more often!

 A big thank you to all who brought food and participated in this annual event sponsored by the Lake Melville Branch of the NLTA.   Special thanks to Geralyn  who helped us with funding and to Betty Ann and the Birch Brook Club who are always so welcoming and supportive of our branch.  Thanks as well to Alex and Nicholas who helped with crafts and to Renee for taking some pics of our day!
