Greetings!


The Gingerbread Houses are in and they are fabulous. The judges had a difficult time of it and even had to pull out a flashlight and measuring tape to break a tie. The winner is Sara Claveau with her creation "Chateau d'Isaac." It is a masterpiece ! It is on display at Chez Glass Lass until December 20th along with all the other equally wonderful entries that are on display in village shop windows.

A very Happy Thanksgiving to all our American friends. We will be thinking of you on the couch, monster turkey sandwich in hand cheering on your favourite football team. Go Pats!

The fact that there's a highway to hell and only a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic numbers.
