holes

ive been away again...... 
back in ontario for all of april



working on the house that i have now decided to sell




it has been feeling really heavy on my shoulders




but since signing the papers with the realtor,   the burden is already less




the place inbetween is uncertain





but im finding many things to amuse myself






these holes i found in the rocks by the ocean on green gables shore





5 minutes east of cavendish




and 5 minutes west of north rustico




on the central part of the north shore




of prince edward island, canada




im loving life right now



and im happy to be back on the island

heres hoping it sells fast  !!
all for now

the last pics of haliburton

 this is the last of the photos from the camping trip.
 the first here is a look inside the wall of a straw bale constructed building. 
the description follows

 the next couple of shots are of the road that we took from the camp ground to haliburton each day.
the rocks would be part of the canadian shield
for more info and some more pics look here


 checked out some yoga and qi gong classes here.  she really is an awesome instructor.  she integrated mindfulness and meditation into her sessions.  she rocks.

the next few pics are from the sculpture forest at the haliburton school of the arts.  it was neat.  you just walk thru the forest and find these in random places
we ate here.  excellent soy latte.  

 and we ate in this awesome pizza place near our campground.  i cant remember the name but it sure was memorable pizza!  we went back twice

and last we went to the wolf center.  theres a cool story about this on the website below
when we went, we heard the story of how the center evolved, then walked into the forest and howled.
usually the pack will howl back but likely they were not in close enough vicinity for us to hear them
the guide assured us that they would hear us
it was interesting and fun!

 lastly, above is my little friend.  i call her strawberry shortcake
that pic was taken at the wolf center when we were supposed to be listening....

 so much has happened since this camping trip.
the next post will begin to fill in the gap

all for now...

moon shadows winery/haliburton part 2

back to the campground.
i have moved inbetween the last post and now, thus the MIA status
more on that later

thats a map of our campground.  the dark line on the right indicates the road.  the pink dot in the middle is the cabin and inbetween is all uphill.

 thats our campfire and marshmallow art


some signs along the way

speaking of moose; thats the local radio station

some beauty along the way



then we find the best sign of all.... moon shadows estate winery.
theres carol.... she is so friendly and she gave special k and i lots of samples.
"Moon Shadows Estate Winery, Ontario's first Maple Winery, specializing in wines made from Haliburton Maple Syrup and Ontario grown tree fruit and berries."

 im not sure how far they ship, but believe me, it is worth finding out if you love maple and you love wine!!!

 time got away from me or i would have been back for more.
 pretty sure they will ship to where i am :)

 all for now.  part 3 to follow shortly
