Hi!

If you're in Ontario's Golden Horseshoe area this Labour Day weekend, be sure to drop into Burlington for Canada's LARGEST Ribfest!!! 

http://www.canadaslargestribfest.com/about.php

The Food is utterly delicious (some recipes have been around since 1943)!, the view overlooking Lake Ontario is amazing!, & the entertainment exquisite! 

Mr. John Ellison, (whose song, "Some Kind of Wonderful", has been played over 30,000,000 times around the world!), will be performing as well as Mr. James Anthony, (whose music, ("Bad to the Bone") has been performed around the world also!).  Both of these gifted musicians live right here, in the Golden Horseshoe!

While you're reading this, why don'cha listen to Some Kind of Wonderful at the same time?  Here's the "You Tube" link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7B5jXYRy3Q


What better combination can anyone wish for --- feasts for the tummy and the ears! 

Food & Music! Music & Food!  
Both are Fantastic!  Both are Good! 

'Til next time!
