A truly Hallmark moment - the proposal - Gingi's ring, Jason's laughter - what more could a gal want? Besides Gord removing the ring 2 seconds after he placed it on my finger of course.... 

If one rubs really cold beer on ones nipples they spontaneously harden - Gord gladly demonstrates. 

Oh The GQ Boys - Sporting their towels and wine - You would have no clue that these handsome men were rebels of the night - sneaking into hotel pools for leisurely syncronized swimming.... 

Spin, Spin, Suga, Suga - Matt SJ demonstrates the "Let's spin 25 times while watching the top if the stick then throw the stick on the ground and attempt to jump over it game" Good Times Abound... 

Matt, Andy, Chris, Mark, Nicole, Gingi and Brendan with Stick - playing the spinning and jumping game.... 

One Sad Mark - feet sinking in sand, you would never guess that it was 20 plus degrees out and the sand felt lovely between his toes... oh the shame.... 

Beachin' It in PEI during a conference break excursion - beautiful day, beautiful company.... sigh... 

One Andy adorns his newly gifted dead flowers... and his blackberry.... 

...and there were bubbles the size of texas....

After a whirlwind couple of weeks I finally have my feet in the sands of Antigonish once again - I know I havn't been a blogess and honestly, don't plan on being one - but I am going to try a bit harder to keep you all on your toes.... I am just returning from - well Sherbrooke, Newfoundland, PEI, Sackville, and Halifax... home for a rest then off to the metropolis of Bridgewater. Newfoundland - look at the pictures below - Newfoundland is georgous - the people are amazing, the view is spectacular and the food is fantastic... what can I say but you can't go there once - so if you plan on a one time visit, you'd better cancell as Newfoundland will haunt you until you return... over and over again.

Went to a conference in PEI - see pics above, This is the first time I've been to PEI in 4 or 5 years - and boy is it a pretty province, pretty pretty.... My company was amazing - so good to see folks I haven't seen in a while, and so nice to chat with new friends...

Back at the ranch the land folks are saying that spring has sprung - their greenhouse is busting with goods and the lilacs are just about to explode. The sun beats warm on my face as I sit and contemplate past discussions and future adventures... The Wassabi Collective are in town tonight, I think the plan is to head to Dayton's for laughter and much music...

Breathe...

Time to gear up for The Sunseekers Ball in NB - Can't sit still for too long....

Newfoundland Bound!

Cause we all need the love: Scott who couldn't refuse the love from our hostess (we'll call her Velma) and one beautiful Gingi - and myself - good work Shea on pressing the button!

You have no idea how long we were at Velma's Pub on Water St. for trying to put this puzzle together - the entire staff came out to witness what was for us a perplexing and angering pile of rocks... Good times had by all... 

Guv'nors Pub - downdown St. John's - what a gem this lady was - we have Gingi handing me her camera (Acadia) Scott checking out Gingi (UNB) our lovely umm we'll call her Kelly (The Pub) and of course Shea (CBU) 

Ahoy! A NL Watermelon! 

Because you can't just have one picture of such an amazing and spectacular area... or tree 

St John's Harbour from the inside - the fishbowl
