A few shots to show the vibe tonight at the The Pierside Pub with the fabulous Pepper Jones and the Rockits. The last long weekend of the summer is offering up some great music in Port Stanley and Sunday Funday has an amazing line up at The Pierside Pub with The Wobbly Pops, Loveless and Connor Wilson Music all scheduled to perform. Enjoy your long weekend everyone!

After the storm, magic happens! Just came across this one while looking for another image I haven't yet located - we sure can get some stunning sunsets this time of year. This was taken 4 years ago on a night that was just wild for fantastic beauty - came across a double rainbow in the harbour after a big storm and the sunset following was a kaleidoscope of changing colours and cloud shapes. Just magical!

Some more scenes from around the village on CALIPSO Holiday Monday. Just a gorgeous day for it!

Like many of you today, I headed down to the berm looking forward to the Port Stanley Calipso Festival Car Show with the Canadian Bombshell Beauties, only to discover there were problems. There is a ton of discussion in the groups about what may or may not have happened but without question what should have happened didn't and it was extremely unfortunate.

As someone who loves to take pictures and help promote some of the things happening in the village - and speaking for the friends and businesses - it saddens us greatly that so many had a negative experience and were made to feel unwelcome. We truly love our visitors to Port Stanley and highly value the time we spend chatting with you all year 'round.

Hopefully lessons learned from today (and many other examples) in the days and weeks ahead can form a starting point to doing things differently. Many assume a village council structure that hasn't existed this century and that has it's challenges but the potential is amazing if we can break down some of the silos and work together.

Relocated car show aside, I hope some of you had some fun times this Calipso weekend and if you're nearby there are fireworks tonight starting in about an hour.

The fireworks planned for tonight have been rescheduled to tomorrow night, which is a great call given the weather. The forecast looks fabulous so why not start with dinner on the beach at GTs On The Beach before checking out the other Port Stanley Calipso Festival events and fireworks over the lake.

A quick break from the Port Stanley Fire Hall Market yesterday to check out some of the Port Stanley Calipso Festival activity and snap a few pictures of the boat parade. So great to see so many people out and about enjoying the village and amazing creativity from some of the boat floats. Great job everyone!
