Green Gables Cavandish, PEI


"Abraham King smiled and, being a man of few words, said nothing; but in his mind he had a vision of the years to be, and in that vision he saw, not rippling acres of harvest gold, but great, leafy avenues of wide spreading
trees laden with fruit to gladden the eyes of children and grandchildren yet unborn"  - The Story Girl
 
 


"We left at sunrise the next morning; there was a sunshine that morning, for a wonder.  The sun came up in a pinky-saffron sky that promised us a find day." -From the short story "How We Went To The Wedding" which can be found in the book - "Against the Odds"
 




 


"I belong to you and the sea.  But I never knew until I crossed the harbour tonight.  Then I knew - it came to me
all at once, like a flood of understanding.  I knew that I could never go away again - that I must stay here forever where I could hear the call of the wind and waves.  The new life was good - good - but it could not go deep enough." The MMagical Bond of the Sea  from  the book "Along the Shore"


                                                "From quiet homes and first beginning,
                                                    Out to the undiscovered ends,
                                                        There's nothing worth the wear of winning,
                                                                But laughter and the love of friends."
  -                                                                     Hilaire Belloc (1870-1953)English writer, poet "Dedicatory Ode."



~ "But wherever they go, all the young people of Avonlea, the memory of this place, the people, the land, the sea, these things will never be forgotten, but will remain in our hearts forever." ~ Road to Avonlea




Government House, Charlotte Town, PEI



"They captured in their ramble all the mysteries and magic of a March evening.  Very still and mild it was, wrapped with great white, boding silence - a silence which was yet threaded through with many little silvery sounds which
you could hear if you hearkened as much with your soul as your ears.  The girls wandered down a long pine land aisle that seemed to lead right out into the heart of a deep red, overflowing wintry sunset."  -Anne of the Island
