🌧️ High 14C

Good morning,

It's a long weekend, so here's to a good one. Kilby Historic Site is marking Thanksgiving on October 11 with apple pressing and cranberry stringing, the Abbotsford Farm & Country Market is on Saturday morning, and Sidekick Brewing's open mic night is coming up on the 14th if you're still in the mood for a night out. We’ll be back in your inboxes on Wednesday morning.
