Ice Cream Festival
Straight from the cow's four-pronged
boob to your mouth — it's the best way to enjoy ice cream!
Make your own ice cream using a manual ice cream maker, learn about the steps involved, and sample ice cream made from other mammal's mammaries! Mmm!

Hog's Back Falls
Two weekends ago Elliott and I went
to Hog's Back Falls. It was amazingly pretty and picnic-perfect.
It's completely surreal to be
surrounded by nature but to stand on your tippy-toes and be able to
see the top of the city-scape.
There are a couple plaques with
historical information on them, a little walk-over so you can watch
the water pour from the dam, and an abandoned armchair.
It's pretty spectacular.
Hog's Back Park — off Hog's Back
Road.
