Speechless Sunday in Langley, B.C. – Quiet as a Mouse!

It’s usually picture-worthy when there is keen interest by the cat (and both dogs) in the same little bit of shrubbery....

A cute little guy, but I’m sad to say, was likely not long for this world... given the interest expressed by the primary cat!

Need some help finding a quiet Langley or Surrey home? Please give me a call and we’ll find your dream home today!

Wordless (almost) Wednesday in Langley B.C. – We’re Nuts About the Coast Mountains!

The warm sunny weather we had last week has since given in to grey skies, and the coastal mountains appear to have received a recent dusting of snow – but at least it’s not raining! These filbert (hazelnut) trees really do have a great view!

Langley’s Thunderbird Horse Park – A Top Equestrian Venue in North America!

Huge kudo’s to Langley’s premier equestrian center – the family-owned Thunderbird Show Park. The North American Riders Group (NARG) named the Thunderbird Show Park as one of the TOP TWO facilities in North America. Congratulations also go to another Canadian facility, Spruce Meadows in Calgary, Alberta, which was named as the top venue!

The announcement was made at the NARG Annual Meeting on Tuesday in Wellington, Florida. In attendance to receive the honour was President and Tournament Director of Thunderbird, Jane Tidball, as well as Laura Tidball-Balisky, daughters of the founders George and Diane Tidball. Laura is a two-time Canadian Olympian in equestrian events.

Thunderbird Show Park will present two World Cup events during the 2012 show season, as well as four other major equestrian (hunter and jumper) tournaments. As Thunderbird Show Park moves into its 40^th year in Langley, this honour adds to the excitement of the anniversary celebration in 2013

If you are seeking an equestrian property in the "Horse Capital" of B.C. please give me a call. Langley has wonderful acreages and is exceedingly proud to be the home of Thunderbird Show Park!

Speechless (almost) Sunday in Langley BC – Can You See Me?

The sun is out and the plants are all getting ready for spring – and this little tree frog has been heralding the good weather!

Who would think such a little creature could produce such a loud noise (of course, if you have small children this is not a surprise to you…)
