NEWS

Winning the war but losing the lettuce Well, my great green light garden has come to a withering halt. Since the fall frost I kept us in salad by growing an assortment of lettuce, kale and other greens in my light stand.

The light stand was expensive and I figured it could earn its keep as more than just a place to start spring seedlings. And it did.

For four months I was unreasonably entertained by getting out the salad bowl and herb scissors and walking mere steps across the kitchen to my “garden”.

I relished snipping off leaves for the supper salad while the winter winds licked the windows.

I felt like I was getting away with something. Having fresh garden greens in December was like skipping out of school.

Some days I would

SLICE OF LIFE SHANNON McKINNON

just nibble on the lettuce straight from the stand, while looking out at the winter landscape. But then in late January I was ratted out.

A horde of aphids in biblical proportions descended on my salad bar.

Had I noticed them sooner I might have been able to get the upper hand, but as it were every last leaf was freckled with the buggers.

Which begs the question; where do aphids come from in the dead of winter?

And how did they get in the house?

I dabbled in some organic warfare involving everything from squishing them to spraying with concoctions of garlic and banana peels to homemade sticky traps to whatever else Google and my garden library threw at me.

I soon lost both my patience and my appetite.

In a final fit, I uprooted every last plant and tossed them in the woodstove, aphids and all. And then I set the boxes of soil out on the deck during a deep freeze to take care of any that were left behind.

Fire and ice...it wasn’t very nice.

Furthermore it was a case of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

I no longer had aphids, but I no longer had fresh salad greens

to look forward to neither.

I won the war, but lost the lettuce.

But that’s okay. I am regrouping and getting ready to plant some greens again.

And soon, very soon, spring seedlings!

I am digging out my seeds and going through them in a flutter of excitement.

February is such a dangerous month for gardeners.

It’s that between stage where you have forgotten about the weeds and the watering and the work (but not the aphids; I haven’t forgotten about the aphids) and can’t wait for the tantalizing renewal of the spring garden.

I know seed catalogues are as duplicitous as fashion magazines, but I forgive them for it.

All those glossy photos of perfect

lobed peppers, plump melons, smooth, unblemished skin of sun ripened tomatoes; the ornamental shrubs dripping in blooms, trees with perfectly symmetrical limbs and climbing roses smothering an arbour in red.

Some of these will come to pass in my garden, while others will simply pass on.

There will be blight, pestilence and no doubt drought, but there will also be the countless unexpected miracles that always come with the making any garden.

Ruth Stout, the late great Queen of the Mulch Method, once recounted a conversation she had with her brother Rex, a gardener and author of the famed Nero Wolfe detective series.

Rex opened their conversation by saying, “Of all the activi-

ties a man can spend his time on, gardening is the only one which is certain to present him with a bewildering succession of delight and dismay. If, after my 30 years of trying to nurse hundreds of plants into vigor and bloom I was asked to give useful advice to an aspiring gardener, I would tell him to always expect the dismay; then the delight, when it comes, will be a glorious surprise.”

Ruth tells her readers that she is of just the opposite temperament.

“For goodness sake, expect delight. If dismay is what you get, it will be a jolt, yes, but think of all the wonderful expectant hours you spent! And the dismay needn’t last long; in no time at all you find yourself anticipating fresh delights.”

I agree with Ruth on this one.

If all I did was anticipate what plants might have succumbed to winter’s wrath, or the fall out of next summer’s drought or the moose that might clear the eight foot fence and Hoover up all the peas and raspberry bushes, then I would simply hang up my hoe.

Instead I am already looking forward to the return of the perennials, a bountiful vegetable harvest come fall and my latest wave of lettuce minus the sprinkling of aphid protein.

With so much to look forward to it’s a pity that February is the shortest month.

AN APPLE A DAY...

There’s an old adage that says “Anticipation is the greater part of pleasure”. It is quite true for some people. Looking forward to something can bring more happiness than actually buying it. Happiness can also come from spending money on others rather than on ourselves. Give it a try!

Falls are a common occurrence in the elderly. To reduce them, consider the following: check the eyes for cataracts; check the home environment for possible risk situations; check medications. As we get older, our bodies handle medications differently. Perhaps a change in medication or dose may help. Low blood pressure could also contribute to falling. Get your pressure checked.

Discussing religion My attention was grabbed recently by a Vancouver newspaper article with the heading “Christy Clark risks discussing religion”. The “discussion” actually took place at a private function where most of the attendees were business and professional evangelical Christians.

The media had not been notified of the event, but asked for permission to attend and were not refused.

The article was fair to Premier Clark; neither condemning nor praising her, merely reported what was said. However, I do not see the ”risk” that she apparently was taking. I am sure the event had a political intent and she did share her personal view of what the government could, would and should do and simply included comments about her faith.

When is it a ‘risk’ to speak of one’s faith? Regardless of whom the person is. The mandate for the disciples is passed on to all believers.

Mark 16:15 15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

I realize that often people get hung up on the word “preach”. The word ‘preach’ induces in many the feeling of apprehension. Preaching is often interpreted by unbelievers

PARSONS PEN

BY Captain Randy as “he is going to shove his faith down my throat” or “he is going to harp on me’. For the believers, we often think of preaching as quoting the Bible to people and persuading them to believe.

Be sure to note this is MY opinion and not necessarily that of anyone else. Just maybe we Christians got it wrong about what preaching means.

Jesus told people He was God’s Son through parables, stories, acts of kindness and through sermons.

Then He left it up to each person to think about and decide to follow Him or not. Nowhere is it recorded that Jesus either pleaded with

people to believe, or forced them to believe. He argued the existence of God, stated that God is, and left it up to the individual to believe or not. We are to do the same, proclaim what we know about Jesus then leave it up to those who have listened to make up their own mind.

Life decisions are for the individual to make. Every person is given the freedom to believe or not to believe.

So where is the ‘risk’ for a person to speak about their faith? The risk is in our own minds. Are we afraid of what people will say?

Are we afraid of those who would argue against our belief?

Well, your testimony of what God means to you cannot be refuted by anyone, for they have not had you experience. When you tell your story, or should I say your faith, they can believe it or not, the choice is theirs. People are willing to tell their story on Oprah, Doctor Phil, George Stroumboulopoulos and a host of other reality TV shows.

Are you willing to tell your story to those you are in contact with daily?

I think Christians can go anywhere and tell their story, tell others your belief. In our country there is no ‘Risk’ in telling our story. We cannot force others to believe, but that is not what Christ asks of us. He only tells us to “GO Proclaim the Good News”.

Heart condition prompts Bell’s retirement TOM FLETCHER Black Press Jobs Minister Pat Bell says he will remain in Premier Christy Clark’s cabinet until the May 14 provincial election, but he has withdrawn his candidacy to run for re-election due to a heart condition.

Bell has been a key cabinet minister for Premier Christy Clark, as he was previously under Gordon Campbell. He is continuing his duties as minister of jobs, tourism and skills training, a portfolio created by Clark as the centrepiece of her job strategy.

Speaking to reporters in his legislature office Monday, Bell down-

Pat Bell played his departure.

“Sometimes when you’re in politics, you automatically think you have become smarter

over a period of time,” Bell said. “I think there’s some evidence that points to the opposite. So renewal is not a

bad thing.”

Bell was nominated to run for a fourth term in Prince GeorgeMackenzie, a seat he has held since the B.C. Liberal landslide of 2001. He declined to identify candidates to seek the party nomination, but said he hopes to see a competition for the job.

Bell’s doctor discovered an aneurysm last fall in one of the arteries connecting to his heart. The condition is typically a bulge in the blood vessel that indicates weakness of the wall. If it bursts it is fatal.

Bell said Monday his condition is being closely monitored, and he may need surgery

if the aneurysm grows larger. But for now he is continuing his work and exercise schedule as usual, and he plans to campaign for the next B.C. Liberal candidate in his constituency.

He said his condition is likely inherited, and not related to the stress of his job. As forests minister he led numerous trade missions to Asia to develop markets for B.C. lumber, and has continued a similar pace in his current role.

Bell’s first full cabinet post was agriculture and lands, where he led the provincial effort to establish a coastal land use agreement now known as the Great Bear Rainforest.

B.C. gas boom is real, all right

B.C. VIEWS TOM FLETCHER

Whether Christy Clark’s government survives the May election or not, the natural gas “Prosperity Fund” idea floated in last week’s throne speech is a useful one.

B.C. is poised to join Alberta in the upper rank of energy producing jurisdictions, with an expanding network of natural gas collection, refining and processing into liquid (LNG) for export. Clark’s pre-election throne speech proposed a resource fund similar to Alberta’s Heritage Fund that would be reserved for debt reduction and major projects, rather than spent on programs, which tends to happen under the political pressure of four-year election cycles.

Opposition politicians and media commentators have dismissed this as a pre-election stunt. They note that the LNG industry in B.C. doesn’t exist yet, and may never produce the hundreds of billions of dollars projected over the next 30 years.

I returned for a visit to B.C.’s northeast earlier this month, and I can tell you the gas boom is real. My parents homesteaded east of Dawson Creek near the Alberta border in 1962, and I recall when our farm was drilled for gas by Gulf Canada 40 years ago.

Many more gas wells have been drilled since then, and country roads have been

widened and numbered for industrial traffic. Hydraulic fracturing, already in use when our farm was drilled, has been combined with directional drilling to open up huge new supplies.

A farming community called Montney is the latest hot play, yielding not only shale gas but petroleum liquids, which are valuable for diluting heavy oil among other things.

B.C. has never seen this kind of international investment interest before. Initial projects have been joined by global players such as Brit-

ish Gas, and Mitsubishi, a key player in Japan’s replacement of its devastated nuclear power program.

Spectra Energy, which operates one of North America’s biggest gas processing plants at Fort Nelson and has another one under construction nearby, has begun work on a third plant near Dawson Creek.

Spectra and British Gas have also proposed the latest of several pipelines, to move all this gas to an LNG terminal at Prince Rupert.

The Kitimat-Prince Rupert region now has at least five

proposed terminals, with investors including Shell, Chevron, ExxonMobil and state players from China and Korea.

All this is happening as shale gas is developed across the United States as well. As with oil, Canada is a captive of the U.S. market, and the flood of new gas supply has the North American price at rock bottom.

At least B.C. hopes it’s the bottom. Gas royalties passed forest income to the B.C. treasury many years ago, and now as the forest industry struggles to recover, the

province faces tumbling revenues from gas.

Why would B.C.’s shale gas be seen as a priority for new global investment in LNG? For one thing, we’re a stable democratic country with a mature industry and competent regulation.

Secondly, the shipping advantage of the Kitimat and Prince Rupert ports to the Pacific Rim has finally been recognized internationally, as coal, forest products, grain and container traffic has climbed in recent years.

B.C. has another advantage that appears to be in-

creasingly important.

The shale gas deposits are deep, under a kilometre or more of solid rock, and most are in remote, sparsely inhabited locations.

That adds cost to the pipeline system, but it has a benefit.

At the beginning of the year I predicted that the international protest movement that dishonestly targets Alberta oil would soon turn to demonizing natural gas.

That pseudo-scientific attack has begun, right here in B.C. I’ll have more on that in a subsequent column.

Turn Down the Heat campaign hugely successful in lakecity The Turn Down The Heat campaign in Williams Lake was a great success, says Williams Lake Business Improvement Area executive director Judy O’Neill.

The 15 participating businesses in Williams Lake collected 555 sweaters, hoodies, and jackets, well above the provincial per store goal of 225 sweaters, O’Neill says.

Sweaters, jackets, and hoodies collected in Williams Lake were donated to the Child Development Centre and Canadian Mental Health.

“We would have liked to provide a breakdown per store but boxes were overflowing fast with the clothes the stores were dropping off or we were running out and picking them up – our office little office is full ..,” O’Neill says.

The clothing was collected during the first Turn Down the Heat

Week campaign Feb. 2 to 9 sponsored by FortisBC and the Business Improvement Areas of B.C. Williams Lake BIA was among 16 partipating Business Improvement Areas (BIAs) from Vancouver Island, Metro Vancouver, and the Interior that rallied customers, fellow businesses, and municipalities to turn down the thermostat and find creative ways to raise awareness about energy conservation.

As part of the campaign the organizations encouraged British Columbians to turn down the heat and donate warm clothing to those in need.

Provincially, more than 5,000 sweaters – double the goal of 2,500 – were collected by the participating businesses and FortisBC employees, reports Doug Stout, vice president of energy solutions and external relations with FortisBC. “BIABC and its mem-

bers should be commended for their great effort,” Stout said in his Feb. 18 report.

“Equally, FortisBC employees stepped up across British Columbia to collect and donate sweaters, while asking customers to make small, but important, changes regarding energy use.”

“We are overwhelmed by the positive response to Turn Down the Heat Week and are particularly appreciative of all of the businesses which turned down their thermostats and jumped in to collect this amazing number of sweaters,” said Ken Kelly, chair of BIABC and general manager of the Downtown Victoria Business Association.

“Business improvement associations in our province are well-known for their engagement in their communities and this campaign has really been a great demonstration of this.”

New seniors’ advocate office created TOM FLETCHER Black Press The B.C. government’s proposal to create a new seniors’ advocate office is being criticized as a pre-election gesture to create a position that won’t have the authority to hold government accountable on problems faced by seniors.

Health Minister Margaret MacDiarmid tabled legislation this week to create the new position.

Unlike the Auditor General and the Representative for

MLA Ralph Sultan to a new Minister of State for Seniors position last fall.

“I have heard from seniors, their families and care providers throughout the province about the many non-medical issues that seniors face that make it difficult for them to remain in their homes,” Sultan said.

A seniors’ advocate office will help improve government support systems for health care, personal care, housing, transportation and income support, Sultan said.

We won’t see it before the [May 14] election,” - Katrine Conroy Children and Youth, the office would not be independent, but would report to the health ministry.

MacDiarmid said the new seniors’ advocate will monitor seniors’ services and work with policymakers, senior care providers and others to identify solutions

to “systemic issues” such as those faced by families navigating the province’s system of seniors’ care.

Katrine Conroy, NDP critic for seniors, said it has been six years since the opposition first called for a new seniors’ watchdog.

Conroy said she is

disappointed that the proposed office not only has no set budget, it is not intended to investigate individual cases.

“We won’t see it before the [May 14] election,” Conroy predicted.

“The deserts are coming from M&M meat shops and this years dinner service will be catered by Carmen’s at Ramada Hotel.

Other than that she says they are keeping

the menu under wraps for now.

Johnston says last year’s TRU Grit Gala raised $40,000 for entrance scholarships and awards for prospective students attending TRU in Williams Lake.

“Five high school students have already received concurrent studies awards and have enrolled in first year university cours-

es,” Johnston says.

“The students will receive dual credit towards high school and university.”

Tickets for this year’s gala March 2 are $95 each and can be purchased at TRU or PMT Chartered Accountants.

Other award and scholarship opportunities can be found on the TRU website at www. tru.ca/williamslake

REALTOR TIPS Redecorating ideas on a small budget • Rearrange furniture and paint can dramatically change the look of a room.

• By using colour tones, you can open up small spaces with light colours, and warm up a room with tones of red, orange or yellow. An access wall can create a great focal point; try a colour such as a rust red! Keep in mind, the darker the tones, the more coats of paint you will need.

• Add new paint to coffee or end tables can freshen up a room, and try rearranging furniture in a curve rather than at right angles, this appears more inviting.

Rearrange your wall art as well by creating unique groupings of different size frames, or for a sleek look create a row of identically sized and framed pieces of art.

• If you are unsure of colour combinations, visit a paint store and check out the colour schemes on paint chips and catalogs professional designers have assembled.

Good luck and have fun!

Importance of Self Care In today’s high stress, busy life style, we often forget to take care of some pretty important people: ourselves. We don’t live in a society that values self care. We worry that if we make ourselves a priority, we become selfish. We are taught from a young age to clean up after ourselves, do our chores and finish our homework. As adults, this evolves into cleaning the house, going to work, caring for our family, cooking, laundry and dishes. Who has time for more? Right?

What if I told you that you would be better at your job, if you were more relaxed? That you would appreciate your kids more if you were more rested? That you would enjoy your spouse more if you felt more valued? That you wouldn’t care if the house were perfect if you felt more put together and in one piece?

Would you still think that taking care of yourself is selfish?

Self care can be as simple as making sure you take your vitamins and brush your teeth. Or as complicated as hiking in the mountains of Peru. Every individual has to find the things in this world that help them connect to themselves and remember the person they are, the hopes and dreams they aspire to and where they have come from.

If you don’t know yourself, it’s hard for you to know what you need to make you feel happy and fulfilled.

Not everyone has the ability to hike in Peru, but there are a lot of less expensive alternatives available closer to home.There is a reason that your local spas are always busy! They offer the jet lag free vacation! Or Staycation, if you prefer.

For some people having a flawless appearance makes them feel wonderful, even more so that lying on the beach for a week would have. So for them a waxing

treatment, or a lash or brow tint is enough to make them feel like a million bucks.

For others it takes a little more TLC. For them perhaps a pedicure. Starting by soaking their feet, allowing the troubles and stresses of the day to melt away.They can drift off in the soft lounge chair, while their feel are cared for. The foot massage might bring them back to earth, a little, and by the time they stand again they have new shiny toes in any color they choose.

There is of course, a wide variety of spa escapes available to meet any budget and any level of relaxation need. From a 15 minute tidy up to a full day retreat, there is something to make everyone feel their best.

At adorn & Beauty Naturally we help people learn the importance of loving and caring for themselves every day. We are a non-toxic spa, specializing in Canadian and organic products. We provide a range of services including waxing, pedicures, manicures, facials, body wraps plus many more. Our highly trained staff, Jo-anne, Sandy and Tanya, have over 30 years of experience between us. We are each trained and certified estheticians.

We pride ourselves on the care of our clients. Each client gets our full attention.

Our new Signature Escape Treatments were developed to help people escape from the stresses of everyday life, while also taking care of the health, of their body and skin. We wanted to go beyond the “average” facial, or the “average” massage. We want your experience to be extra-ordinary! We are happy to say that each experience can be classified as your own Staycation!!

YOU are worth it!

When was the last time you pampered yourself?

How to clean and rejuvenate naturally With the New Year already here, many of us stepped in 2013 with a lot of goals and resolutions. Often as the busyness of our lives sucks us back in reality we tend to put these new intentions aside with a hope to get back to them - soon. That might make us scratch our heads sometimes and a little guilt will creep up. Ahhh what’s the use. We try to cover the uneasiness we feel.

But wait. In the comfort of your home, in your bathroom you can take 20 – 30 minutes to completely change, how you feel and how you look, the nicest thing about that is that you don’t require any exotic, hard to get ingredients or extra shopping in specialized stores.

Most of what could be used is often found in the kitchen. Try them, they are not less effective and pleasant then those sophisticated, expensive mass produced creams, cleansers and masks. They are more often then not chemical soups appealing to the eye, nose and touch. Yes I am talking about natural cleansers, masks, body care, designed to relax you, and give you back to yourself. We can welcome spring with sun in our eyes, brightness in our smile, feeling and looking good.

These very old remedies are little adjusted so it is easier to apply them today, then it was time ago.

The first recipe requires cloth and jojoba or olive oil. Do yourself a facial which would cost you about .50 cents in your bathtub as oppose to 50.- or so dollars in beauty salon. You need hot water in your tub, 3 drops of essential oils of lavender, Ylang ylang or rosewood and the jojoba or olive oil. Slowly massage your face with the oil, then take the face cloth wet it in the water as hot as possible and place it on your face. . When it cools down, wet it again and place it on your face. Do it as long as you want. The skin opens up and releases impurities. The oil helps to rejuvenate, and moisturizes the skin. At the end use honey on your face. Very gently spread the honey all over the face and neck. Wash it off with warm water.

This body rejuvenation moisturizing massage cleanse requires chamomile tea, mint tea and potato starch. Make one cup of tea of both herbs, if you

can find plantain herb in health food store, you can add 1tblspn. Plantain is fantastic for the skin. Let it steep for about 15 minutes, add ½tspn of potato starch and apply to the body including face. Gently massage the skin on hands, arms, chest, neck and face. Skin will be smooth, soft, and moist. It will not crack in cold.

Potato mask is excellent for visible bags under eyes because of high potassium content. The potato is grinded mixed together with milk (preferably organic since regular milk has lot of chemicals) and whole wheat flour. Make a paste, apply on face and soak your body in the tub with lavender essential oil. Take your deserved 20 minutes. If the mask doesn’t please your nose, add 2 drops off essential oil of lavender, or rosewood.

Strawberry mask nourishes and cleanses the oily skin. 2 strawberries, 1tblspn oats mixed (flour), add whipping cream(preferably organic without chemicals). Mix everything together, apply on the skin and relax for 15 – 20 minutes. Wash with warm water and simultaneously gently massage the skin in from the neck up.

There are many different cleansing and rejuvenating masks using fruit and vegetables depending on type of the skin. Banana mask is for dry skin, when banana is mixed with almond, or olive oil. People used to add yolk in it. That is the option.

For oily skin there is calendula, for sensitive, dry skin chamomile, for tired sagging skin linden blossoms.

Make strong tea out of these herbs according to your skin type, let it cool down and them pour it to the ice tray and freeze it. Every day take one cube and wash your face with it after you used warm water to wash your face..

Gently around your eyes and go down to your neck. My experience taught me that little sage and horsetail are very beneficial addition to any of these skin washes.

There is way more to what we can do for ourselves, and keep the environment clean as we use only natural ingredients. You can learn more about natural skin care in our workshops coming up in March.

Easter Eggs dyed with Kool-Aid

2

9

16

*Parent Supervision Required A cost-effective way to get those colored eggs for Easter!

What you’ll need: • Kool-Aid (different flavors for different colors) • Jar or container for Kool-Aid mixture • Spoon • Eggs & Egg Carton • A pot to boil the eggs or you can use the pinhole method

How to make it: 23 1. Dissolve one packet of KoolAid with 1 cup of water 2. Use a spoon to submerge egg into Kool-Aid mixture for up to 10 minutes (keep checking egg color until you get the desired color saturation) 3. Remove, let dry and ENJOY! Helpful tips: Lemon-lime does not work; Grape comes out a brownish-grey color, not purple; 30 dye is easily removed when wet; All eggs are different, color may have spots on the surface; Boiled eggs keep well in refrigerator but when brought back to room temperature, moisture tends to break down the dye.

NEWS YMCA name change to YMCA of Northern BC After fifty years serving Prince George with relevant programs and services that promote health and well-being, the YMCA of Northern BC will be taking steps to offer the same quality programs to communities as far south as 100 Mile House, north to the Yukon border and west to the Queen Charlotte Islands.

The new name and expanded focus was approved by the board of directors in the summer of 2012 and has received full support from YMCA Canada. “Since 1964, we have served children and families in Prince George, and our Board felt it was time to share the YMCA message with

new audiences in northern BC,” says Peter Vogt, chairperson. “Our staff has been informally delivering programming in communities such as Fraser Lake, Williams Lake and New Aiyansh and we are seeing residents from surrounding towns such as Fort St. James travelling to Prince George to participate in programs.”

The YMCA of Northern BC will be based in Prince George and regional programs will be offered as municipal partnerships are developed.

Many YMCA programs such as licensed child care and Learn to Skate are mobile and future staff will receive training in YMCA-based curriculum.

SAFETY TIPS

Smoke alarms and alert devices, called accessories, are available for people who are deaf. Strobe lights throughout the home are activated by smoke detectors and alert people who are deaf to fire conditions. When people who are deaf are asleep, a high intensity strobe light is required along with a pillow or bed shaker to wake them up and alert them to fire conditions so they can escape. Currently this equipment is activated by the sound of a standard smoke alarm. KKK Smoke alarm alert devices, called accessories, are available for people who are hard of hearing. These accessories produce a loud, mixed low-pitched sound. This equipment is activated by the sound of the smoke alarm and is usually installed next to the bed. People who are deaf may find that a pillow or bed shaker is also helpful to wake them up.

Recent research has shown that a loud, mixed lowpitched sound is more effective for waking people of all ages than the loud high-pitched sound of a traditional smoke alarm. As people age, their ability to hear high-pitched sounds decreases.

Research the available products and select one that best meets your individual needs.

WHERE TO FIND EQUIPMENT

Smoke alarms with built in or separate strobe lights can be purchased through home improvement store websites or by searching the internet for “strobe light smoke alarms.”

BRK/First Alert, Gentex and Kidde brands offer this type of smoke alarm. Smoke alarm accessories such as bed/ pillow shakers, transmitters and receivers are available through lifetone.com and safeawake.com. Make sure any smoke alarm or accessory device you use has the label of a recognized testing laboratory.

DRAMATIC SLOPED CEILING A dramatic sloping ceiling in the great room adds a touch of drama to this two-storey, three-bedroom family home.

Entry is up a couple of steps and across an L-shaped veranda into a spacious foyer with a coat closet on the left. Directly ahead, through an archway, is the great room. The fireplace will make this room attractive during the cooler months, and for al fresco meals and entertaining during the summer, sliding doors open onto a terrace overlooking the back garden.

Open to the great room are the dining room and kitchen. The dining room also enjoys access to the terrace, and the U-shaped kitchen boasts a large prep island. A walk-through pantry leads to the laundry room, which can double as a mud room, thanks to the handy coat cupboard and access from the two-car garage.

A powder room is conveniently located near both the foyer and laundry room.

Upstairs, the master suite overlooks the back garden for privacy. A walk-in closet will provide lots of space for clothing, and there’s a linen closet adjacent to it.

The four-piece ensuite includes a shower as well as a soaker tub.

The second and third bedrooms, separated by a threepiece bathroom, have their own linen storage.

The exterior is clad in wooden shingles, and accents include painted trim and pilasters with stone bases.

Partly mullioned windows complete the look of casual comfort.

The home measures 38 feet wide and 50 feet deep, for a total of 1,825 square feet of living space. Plans include an unfinished basement.

Plans for design 7-3-947 are available for $676 (set of 5), $766 (set of 8) and $819 for a super set of 10. Also add $30.00 for Priority charges within B.C. or $55.00 outside of B.C. Please add 12% H.S.T., 13% H.S.T. Or 5% G.S.T (where applicable) to both the plan price and Priority charges.
