This spring has felt like a rollercoaster in Albert County―and no, I’m not talking about the roads. We were teased by lovely warm, sunny days followed by snow and sub-zero temperatures well into April. It feels almost surreal to say that spring has finally arrived.

![]() Alma has its Celebration Days, Hillsborough has Homecoming Days and Riverside-Albert’s Shepody Days is growing to rival these two neighbouring celebrations, while sandwiched between them on the second weekend in July. Shepody Days began four years ago with a great idea by Joanne Butland, her mom Beulah Morrissey and her family – to hold kayak races on the river near Riverside Consolidated School. ![]() by Rachel LeBlanc Three years ago a tired couple who were backpacking across NB randomly stopped at our house and asked if they could borrow our backyard as a campsite. Simon and Mieke were from the south of France and we had a beautiful evening with them, and in the morning we shared a warm cup of coffee. Meike was expecting a child so we chatted about all things baby. It was wonderful. Simon and Meike taught me that sometimes life brings you amazing opportunities in the form of strangers. Welcome this. The next summer, as I drove home the twisty-turny roads of Route 114 towards Hillsborough, I noticed a couple of cyclists labouring their way in the darkest, stormiest rain. |
