Prince Edward Island

This weekend marks the 12th Annual 70 Mile Yard Sale in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada. Many interested buyers from PEI, other parts of Canada, etc., journey to southeastern Prince Edward Island to find the yard sale items that best meets their needs.

The 70 mile yard sale in PEI is tremendous for local businesses such as restaurants, gas bars, B&B's, cottages, stores, etc. No doubt their sales will soar this weekend.

It's also a great time to get out and meet old and new friends, have a chat, and enjoy the fellowship of the event. For a PEI Real Estate agent it is a good chance to network with potential buyers from all over the region and beyond.

That's it for now,

When I get away from Naples in the fall, I like to escape the Florida heat and humidity. This year's choice was Eastern Canada.

I have been golfing in Prince Edward Island on the East Coast of Canada for a week now. I have played four courses and they are all different. Many of the golf courses are hilly and the putting greens have lots of undulation, making putting very, very difficult. These courses are nothing like Pelican Bay or Quail Creek where I play regularly.

I encountered another problem today. We played a course called Fox Meadow. Gorgeous course. However when you come up to the greens this is what you see. The foxes sit and wait behind the trees just off the green. When they see a ball land on the green, they run out and grab it .and run away. They think they are eggs! Slow learners, I guess.

On the scorecard there is a rule: If a fox takes your golf ball, replay from same location without penalty. Now, that is unique!

Well, after a long year, I am taking my fall break away from Naples and real estate. What better way than to play golf in Prince Edward Island on the East Coast of Canada! It has been sunny every day and about seventy five degrees. The golf courses are some of the best in North America. Lobster, mussels, oysters,scallops, you name it. It is all fresh! This is just one of the meals we have enjoyed on the island.

The

17th Annual Abegweit Pow-Wow took place from the Panmure Island Cultural Grounds in Panmure Island, Prince Edward Island, Canada. The Pow-Wow reunites Aboriginal peoples from across Canada. Jimmy Augustine from Elsipogtog, New Brunswick was the Master of Ceremonies for the great event.

A Pow-Wow is a rejoicing of life through a feast and dance to the "Heart Beat of Mother Earth" represented in the Sacred Drum. The drummers are the Stoney Bear Singers from Eskasoni, Nova Scotia. The Pow-Wow includes: traditional teachings, Aboriginal art, booths with great crafts, bingo, and tickets with a chance to win many monetary prizes.

The Pow-Wow ended on Sunday evening with the Mi'kmaq Feast that is open to the visiting public. Included on the menu was famous PEI lobster, mussels, salmon, strawberry cake dessert, tea, etc. The line ups were long but the wait was worth the very enjoyable meal, and fellowship with the Aboriginal people of Canada.

The Pow-Wow location in Panmure Island, PEI is great because the excellent sand beach is close by for enjoyable swimming and to cool off from the warm August weather in beautiful Prince Edward Island.

The Aboriginal people have a very rich culture and tradition; the Pow-Wow is a great expression of this culture and is a great way to educate the general public.

That's it for now...
