4th Line Theatre
This is a unique outdoor, live theatre experience that highlights creative plays written about local history.
4th. Line Theatre
We really enjoyed the play this year. Last year we got rained out, not because we weren’t provided with huge umbrellas, but because the rain was so insistent, there was fear of accidents for the actors.
This theatre takes advantage of outdoor settings and very creatively uses simple props to aid actors….. really well done.
LiftLock Supper Cruise – South River
Our Anniversary was yesterday, and we spent it on the LiftLock Dinner Cruise, enjoying music, supper and friends while we took a leisurely cruise down the river. Unfortunately for me, the weather, which had promised to be sunny and warm, turned out overcast, but still warm. I had hoped to get some better pics, but lost a lot of interest in that department because of the weather.
We did have a delightful 3-hour cruise, compliments of Music Fest (I won the dinner cruise for 2). Music Fest is free, Wednesdays and Saturdays, and has a lot of good talent in the line-up.
Last year we went on the Lift Lock cruise that takes you up a Lock, and gives you the history of the Trent-Severn Waterway…. quite an operation. I can feel sorry for the men that engineered it!
We’re amazed at how many nice events go on around here.
Why don’t you come sometime? We can accommodate you at Country Blessings!
Are you looking for a quiet get-a-way?
