Since moving into our new house this past September, Greg and I have taken the scattered opportunity that has arisen to meet our neighbours and acquaint ourselves with the community outside our door. We've collected leaves and chatted about harvest moons, delved into the history of our street and its inhabitants, and hung holiday wreaths and admired their beauty with a neighbour from across the street.
Tonight, Greg and I were invited to attend a neighbourhood wine and cheese at our local Bed and Breakfast, Monroe House. We had the loveliest time meeting more of the residents of our road. I've now been swayed to the joys of the holiday block party. This evening filled us with the Christmas spirit, and has made me ponder holding a similar function this summer at our home. On top of the hobnobbing, the evening provided a gorgeous tour of the elegant property. I'd highly recommend staying at Monroe House if you find yourself in St. John's. Its proximity to Greg and me is a happy coincidence.
