The last remnants of Louise Morrill’s red and green back porch color scheme will disappear soon. It has greeted everyone for 25 years. But I think she would approve of my equally wild colors of hot pink and and aqua that will replace it. .

Almost done with the addition!

🔥 Beltane — May 1st

I am so excited to Beltane this week eeek!!
Beltane is such a favourite time of mine and can’t wait for this greater fire sabbat ❤️🌹🤍

A sacred fire festival marking the height of spring and the turning toward summer.
A time of fertility, passion, and life in full bloom—where the energy of creation, connection, and abundance is at its strongest.

Honour the fire within, celebrate the beauty around you, and step boldly into growth, joy, and possibility ✨

On May this year the Full Flower Moon will fall the same time as Beltane on May1st. Then at the end of May on May 31st will be a Full Blue Moon as there are two full moons in the same month. May is going to be a truly magical month.

While redoing the space between the house and our new addition, we needed a door to the basement. Sarina Otaibi and I purchased items from the upstairs of the old Granite Falls City Hall when they were tearing it down , including this door which is part of a set of double doors. I’m excited to be able to use it ! We also bought the tin ceiling panels that lined a closet above the stairway. Some of those will also be used in the addition and some also have a home on the front of the bar at Bluenose Gopher Public House.

Getting there! The 2026 metal shed replaces the 1884 carriage house.!
