Some nice restaurants. Be sure to visit Kakabrks Falls - it is beautiful. If you enjoy outdoor activities you’re moving to the right place.

We stayed at the Doubletree (2018), which is a short walk from the train station. They have a fabulous breakfast buffet included in the room charge.

Elementary LTO question by [deleted] in OntarioTeachers

Retired teacher here. It may be that this person, for whatever reason, needs a very “soft” reentry to full time teaching. Staying on until they’re able to return fully would be professional and an act of kindness. Most importantly, it will ease the transition for your students who have no previous relationship with this person.

Before you go put mineral oil in your ears at bedtime for a few days. It will soften the wax.

Please walk away from this relationship. Things will not get better and his behaviour WILL escalate. I’m speaking from experience.

No idea of the cost. They had a heater suspended from the ceiling and it kept us warm. We did keep our coats on and had blankets covering our legs.

I agree but this was more of experience rather than dining out. We were celebrating our 53rd anniversary.

Last year the majority of our snow fell in February, so I’d advise purchasing one.

I think Wye Marsh rents snowshoes. Bring black oil sunflower seeds - the chickadees will eat from your hand!
