Saturday Sculptures From Fredericton, NB

Posted on October 21, 2023 by Mama Cormier

….in the historic district of Fredericton

There are only 60 000 people in Fredericton but it is the capital of New Brunswick and it had a very vibrant arts community. Our daughter recommended that we visit the Beaverbrook Art Gallery and we weren’t disappointed. On the outside of the gallery and across the street there were numerous sculptures.

A Fun Day at the Green Pig

Posted on October 15, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…it is much more than a corn maze

Last year in September, The Green Pig Country Market in Salisbury, NB, burned down. Earlier this year the owners started to rebuild and when we arrived last week they had a great selection of pumpkins and a variety of squash.

After Winnie’s special birthday breakfast we drove to The Green Pig. I thought we were just going to a corn maze but it turned out to be much more. Apart from the market and the corn maze they had a great play area for kids of all ages.
