Out and About
It's been a fun few days, and I wanted to mention a few places I've been recently--and mention a couple of things to do on Canada Day.
On Saturday afternoon, I tagged along with Jenny for a wedding she was performing at Hayward Lake in Mission. We had never been there, and it was a beautiful spot, although the water levels are low due to some work BC Hydro is doing. I had about an hour to kill and stumbled upon BC Hydro's Stave Falls Powerhouse museum. What's not to love about an old building with old generators, electricity demonstrations, and 1940s appliances?
On Sunday, we dropped in on Township 7 Winery's Art in the Vines event, which was booming under the perfect south Langley sunshine. Afterward, we swung by the new Frosting Cupcakery in Langley City. It's a cute spot and the girls loved their cupcakes.
And last night, I took Indie out to see the Vancouver Titans' home finale at the Events Centre. It was a good crowd, 600+, and a lot of fun, even if the home side lost 129-100. The Titans were missing a couple of their big bodies, and their interior defence showed it.
Which brings us to Canada Day, a big deal here in Langley.
The big Canada Day celebration actually kicks off today at McLeod Athletic Park. Click here for the details.
There's also the Fort Langley celebration tomorrow, and (my personal favourite Canada Day tradition) the pancake breakfast at Krause Farm from 9 to 11 a.m.
