Fairy houses at the South Shore Villa

We have  finished fairy houses and placed them  out in the South Shore Villa gardens. They are starting to get the attention they deserve. We hope the visiting children will seek out our houses and help us name the fairies. We have a large jar on the mantel to hold the suggestions and it is going well. My favourite fairy name suggestion  is Moonlight Pearl by Linda Kurylyk. She has raised the bar on imaginative names.

We spent many amusing hours choosing colors and imagining what a fairy would need and want as part of their home. |A healthy imagination is most useful at any age especially when living in long term care.http://www.raisingthebarrs.com/2011/06/21/fairy-houses/. Let us know how you enjoy our creations and help us out with some name suggestions.

 It was a once in hundred years news  event when Geraldine Inman turned 100 years old on August 13th 2015. We had a proper celebration with over 40 guests including family and friends and staff. We had song and fiddle music provided by  Renee Dahn.  Cake and ice cream was enjoyed by everyone. It was a lovely party. The Guardian Newspaper photographer came and photographed newsroom@theguardian.pe.ca  Geraldine,  her son Ernest  and daughter Dianne. And they made the third page of the paper later that week. We appreciate the efforts of the Guardian Newspaper to make Islanders of all ages feel special.

Everyone was in awe of Geraldine living to be 100 years old and how smart and wonderful she is.
