It's going to be a busy weekend for me this weekend. If only people knew how tough it is to sit in someone else's living room and watch T.V. for a couple of hours. So I'm calling on all Quinte house hunters to stop by, have a look, be charmed (both by me and the homes I'm selling) and present me ...

It's about 30 minutes north of Cobourg in Northumberland County and boasts one of the best full service marinas on the entire waterway. This little town of about 1200 people is a fisherman's dream and calls itself the ...

The Goodrich-Loomis Conservation Area is a great place to spend some time with the family without breaking the bank, in fact, it's absolutely free to visit. There is a box for donations at the front of the park, and I'm sure the Lower Trent Conservation Authority would appreciate some financial s...

I thought I would pass on a warning from the Ontario Parks Website. They are fighting a battle against the Asian Long-horned Beetle and the Emerald Ash Borer, two invasive species in Ontario that are destroying millions of trees in this province. If you plan to go camping this summer, please thi...

Sandbanks Provincial Park is one of the biggest attractions in all of Prince Edward County. Every summer hundreds of thousands tourists flock to it. It's a great place to spend a hot summer's day and perhaps do a little bit of camping.   Sandbanks is the world's largest freshwater sandbank and du...
