Gaspe Peninsula
Friends with a Farm
November 16, 2012
Last weekend we went to visit our friends who have a small sheep farm. They live on the very tip of the Gaspé peninsula. The ocean is across the road from their home. Want to know how we met this family? FIMBY. I love FIMBY for this very reason; I ...
The Price of Paradise ~ My travel plans for Allume
September 24, 2012

Skiing ~ It's Cold Out There
January 23, 2012
