My love HATE affair with Apple Blossom!!!







Well this weekend yet another Apple Blossom came and went. It was a good time that started out with a lovely long walk down to the Fire Works. As a local girl I know all the tricks of the Apple Blossom trade. And getting around town and avoiding long car lineups to get out of town is just one of my lovely apple blossom aquired tricks.

And so I was off with Nick and my bud Mary heading to the Fire works.....Apple Blossom is all about the walking, and I walked a LOT this weekend!!
The fireworks were great, slightly smokey at times.....but hey you set things on fire and shoot them out ...and chances are there'll be smoke!!
After the fire works display, we headed back to our favorite Apple Blossom weekend pub aka. Kings Arms Pub . Well as usual on the walk back to the pub, we had to see the lovely drunken teens that always seem to have a few drinks of liquid courage, and then decide they want to fight. And Friday night was NO EXCEPTION....as we walked this young guy....16-17 ish...was yelling at another kid. And of course eventually the druken boys had to fight....I think they got out one punch, and voila it was over, of course the male that felt he won the fight had to slam his fist on a road sigh to assert is male pride. I said to Nick and Mar, wow....not only is his head going to hurt tomorrow, so is his hand. And then said a silent prayer, hoping he'd get sent to the drunk tank!!!! Haha gotta love the VALLEY!! Once at the kings Arms things picked up and we retired to a booth for a few coolies! It was great fun....and the band that was playing was awesome too.
The best part about coming to Apple Blossom is seeing people you haven't seen in years, or atleast since last year at Apple Blossom!!! As a local you always go to the Kings Arms pub Saturday to take in the festivities, and so about 2pm on Sat, we walked in to check out the parade and see all our friends at the pub!!!

It was a great day, everyone was happy the sun was shining. But still, even a few of the people I went to high school with ended up getting thrown in the drunk tank by the end of the day!! oh my.....

After hanging out at the Pub for a while, and chattting, we decided to head home to BBQ!!

It was great fun, and we ended up having a lovely shed party in our garage!! ( mainly because a few of the people smoke, and I refuse to have cigarette smoke in my house!! haha) at about 3am, we had a pizza delivered to our garage ( I told the pizza guy I had a strage request, and he said....yep delivery to a garage is a bit strange, but it all worked out at pizza was there by 3:30!!)I think the shed party was the best part of the day, as we had our friend from NFLD singing on the guitar, and we were all just chatting. I saw my friend Scott whom I havent seen in 5 years!! And the whole gang was back together again!!! What a great time!
