"Great, wide, beautiful, wonderful world,"

With the wonderful water around you curled,

And the wonderful grass upon your breast ~

World, you are beautifully dressed,

The wonderful air is over me,

And the wonderful wind is shaking the tree,

It walks on the water and whirls the mills,

And talks to itself on the tops of the hills.

You friendly Earth!  How far you go,

With the wheat fields that nod and the rivers that flow,

With cities and gardens, and cliffs and isles,

And people upon you for thousands of miles!

~ Wm. Brighty Rands (1823 - 1882) English Writer.

"Land was slowly reclaimed from the forest"

"However disparate their origins [early settlers], and however different the imperatives that brought the first settlers, they all faced much the same problems once they were here.  For the majority, starting again in a new country meant first clearing a small patch of land upon which to grow enough food to stay alive."

~ John & Monica Ladell, Inheritance, Ontario's Century Farms Past & Present.  Macmillan of Canada, 1979.

Mount Olivet Lilac Drive Thru'



"All the authorities on the Language of Flowers agree that the purple lilac expresses the First Emotions of Love.  As Robert Tyas explained, the lilac's chief beauty lies in its flowers with their rich, heady scent, but these are short-lived and transient, like the first intense pangs of love."

~ Gill Saunders, Victoria & Albert Museum


"Oh were my Love yon lilac fair..."

 O were my Love yon lilac fair,
Wi' purple blossoms to the spring,
And I a bird to shelter there,
When wearied on my little wing

~Robbie Burns
