I still have so many East Coast photos to share! For this week’s Prince Edward Island instalment, I will focus on Skinners Pond (the home of Stompin’ Tom Connors) and just for Stephanie at This Wonderful Life, Anne of Green Gables’ Heritage Place – yes, we went there!

Let me start off with the picturesque setting in Lucy Maud Montgomery’s famous Anne of Green Gables. I initially wasn’t going to share these images because of the overcast weather, but for fans, you’ll see the views were outstanding. Rolling green hills and a quiet, serene stillness fills the property. According to Parks Canada, Green Gables Heritage Place was designated in 2004 and is also the site of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Cavendish Home.

After our stop there, we headed onto Skinners Pond. This is a  place I’ve mentioned previously, following the passing of legendary Canadian singer Stompin’ Tom.

Seeing as family history is engraved at the site of Connors’ childhood home, I needed to see it; see what my mom and her parents saw many years ago.

Skinners Pond back in 1973. Below, you will see the old farm house and a photo of Stompin’ Tom with my Grandfather. Read more about it here.
