HEADING HOME

We will very soon be heading to our home in Canada.  We have had a lovely winter but it is time to go... I thought I would include some pics of our park in this  post, just so you get a bit of a look.

First I would like you to see our beautiful Bocce ball courts.  They were completed early in the fall.  Shortly after, the lovely seating area was completed.  We have made much use of this area for happy hours, birthday parties and even two wedding receptions this past season!

 

Right next to these courts are the shuffleboard courts.  They are not new but are constantly being worked on to keep them in top shape for the season.

Just south of these are the pools and hot tubs.

The park started a model railroad section.  I think it has been going about 4 years now.  Every Thursday during country store they will get it running for you.  Every year it becomes larger and larger.  These photos are just showing a part of it.

 

Of course there is our ball diamond.  We have, I believe, 6 different teams that play out of our park.

And last but not least are our tennis courts.  Sadly as I was there late in the day, there are no players on the court.

I have not included our pickleball courts.  They were just completed in February.  This summer the park plans to do a wonderful area similar to the bocce ball courts.  I will send pics next season when that is competed.

This is just a mere sampling of all the activities at the park.  We also have a huge ballroom with entertainment usually twice a week of one form or other.  Also there is line dancing, round dancing, square dancing each week and a dance on Saturday nights.  Every week we have "country store" held in the park with, oh I am not sure, maybe 50 vendors?  Some are in the ballroom and some are outside.

I also did not take pics of euchre night, or stitchers  and crafters or busy fingers.  Those are the 3 other activities I make it to weekly.

There is also numerous other activities that I have not made it to yet.  Lapidary, stain glass, silversmith, pottery, basket weaving (that is with pine needles), poker, bridge, 500, Mexican train, crib, oh I could go on and on.

Bottom line, if you are bored here, it is your own fault!

So the next time I blog, I will be back in Canada  and will have lots to post from there as well!    I will be able to spend some time with my children, Don can see his grandchildren and we both will spend time with our friends.
