Oh Canada!!!

Well, it's that fantastic time of the year again!! Sugar shack time!! We took advantage yesterday of the great weather and treated ourselves in visiting a local Sugar shack. Yves St-Pierre's sugar shack in Lancaster, Ontario. What a gorgeous place and the smell all around us was just amazing, delicious and inviting to our taste buds. It was the most beautiful day to go out and enjoy the sweet natural smell and taste of nature's drink. Sweet tasting maple syrup, a sure sign of spring. If you stood still enough you could almost hear the maple tree sap dripping in the metal buckets hanging on each tree trunk...cool sight!

The nature around us always has something to teach us. It respects and works so well in harmony and balance together. The cool nights and warm days just makes this amazing sap flow out of the maple trees.....sweet success is all that I can say!!!We were treated to some taffy on  the snow...Wow is the only words that can describe the look and smile on my son's face and he was enjoying this nature's unique luxury!
We are so very lucky here in Canada to have so many different ways of enjoying the outdoors in any season. We really should take every opportunity to stop and be thankful for what our wonderful country has to offer.Get out there and make cherished memories with your families. Enjoy springtime, its the time of the year where everything is new again. The geese are coming back from their southern escapade, the forest animals are getting ready for all of their beautiful new babies to be born and we made it through another cold unpredictable winter...yahoo!!


Stay healthy!!!
