Tantramar - good times

Got to spend time at one of my all time favourite places in February - thanks to the generosity of my godmama Andree. 

I have been going to the Tant since I was little so it's sort of like going to our own private retreat... familiar and wonderful with so many memories plus the making of new ones - all centered around the glorious big fire! Shhhhh don't tell anybody about how many logs my papa burned to keep the hearth and our hearts warm and toasty. I kind of lost count! I think my family and I all agree that having a great big ginormous open fire that you can see right through into the bedroom is... well... priceless. Is it wrong that a fire makes us so happy?


My mama was sick but still managed to enjoy herself - how could she not with the combination of me, papa and dearest Andree for company. She got to work on a few knitting projects, mooch around in Lady Minto (thrift store) and Transitions (thrift store) with her mooch'in friend Andree and just hang out and gab. We even managed to pull ourselves away from the fire for a couple of walks in the great outdoors.

We had our good friends Janice and James over for dinner too - and feasted on a barbecued moose rib roast. I got some leftovers!

On the way back we went via Victoria so got to have a mooch around there too - my first time in the capital. I like it there. I really like Beacon Hill and Oak Bay road along the beach too. 

Just made it onto the ferry!
