Holy Updates Batman!!!

Okayyyyyyy......
Hoping those who got invites but haven't paid attention to Facebook now know that the wedding location is at our place, Troddle House, 17 Church Street right here in Bridgetown~! The ceremony will take place at the same time...7pm with a corn boil and cold buffet....salads and side dishes still happily welcomed.... music...sadly no live band :(   and what we hope to be a good ol' hootenanny...Gary says shindig but we will see :) We are so looking forward to seeing you all on our day...I cannot believe how quickly the year has gone by! So to commemorate your visit to us we have decided to do an interactive crafty guestbook.
At the Firefly Makery here in town....visit on Facebook or the website to check out all the amazing things that Olivia has in store....we will have a Make A Garden Tile craft! We ask that you paint a design, sign your name or whatever you feel like drawing on your tile, and will be putting them in our garden at Nuts Reach! You can drop into Firefly Makery between 12 and 4 on Thursday August 28th, Friday August 29th and Saturday August 30th to design your tile! While you are in town you can visit our friend Caroline at Wools on the Corner, Shannon at Queen Street Blooms, Kathy at the James House Museum, Priscilla and Connie at the Salvation Army, the girls at V&S Variety Store or Adaptions, the boys Darrell, Gary, Stephen and Rod at Frasers and take a spin about on the Historic Cypress Walk through town!

The Town, The Park and Fun Things To Do...


 August 30th is a very busy day in our neck of the woods!

Not only is it our wedding, but a friends daughter is getting hitched the same day, it's the Labour Day weekend and it's Wharf Rat Rally in Digby....which means 20,000 bikers will descend on the valley for a week long show and shine!
So here is a little peek at our town and the fun things to do!


 Jubilee Park....where the hitching will take place! You can rent canoes and kayaks and boat up the Annapolis River...which is a tidal river...yup it goes up and down with the ocean tides! There is a totally amazing Farmers Market on Tuesday for those coming a bit earlier or staying later!! The tourist information booth is also located in Jubilee Park!

We also have a gorgeous Provincial Park located on top of the North Mountain....don't laugh Westies...it has to be at least 1000 feet high....It's called Valley View and has some great camping...but no swimming or flush toilets! Just go for the view!


Here's the website in case anyone is interested in staying!!!
