The wonderful moments was captured in the newly restored heritage barn, in which the nature light shining through the crack of the wall, touch the air with the Romatic and warm strokes.

It was pot luck dinner , we got chance to have authentic Chinese food and Canadian food prepared in the family kitchens, it brought us closer together by our taste buds.

David and Genlong were all world traveler, they met on the same table for the food.

Surely, they had lots of stories to share. Maybe, they are talking about the same city they traveled.

The creative restaurant idea came cross mind at that moment, Hay! Yah!

 

Leo Gao and Derick Ding headed up for logistic flow as it went on.

Yah, Hay, all people liked play on the hay pile

the Canadian dancer and the Chinese dancer, Can you believe it is their first time to dance together?

Did they dance as colorful swans ?

the friendship warmed us more than the camp fire

The friendship and love continued , Local Artist Shieley opened her studio for Chinese group to visit.

Shirley Mancino’s Studio is filled with different media. 

Walking through the whole house filled with art work. First time, we realized life could be merged with the passion of arts.

We capture of moment to share the love of sisters.

Next visit was to Antony’s house, who lived in the art: his house and his yard even his van.

The heads with gray hair always carry intelligence built through life, so they had lots lots to share.

Antony played Donald Duck to make the little girl laugh .

Molly in Derick’s painting waved good bye with the memory laughter in the Antony’s house.

Such a wonderful memory, No wander the bee keeper Marco said to Kim,”I don’t want Chinese go.”

Later In the picture shared by Bro Li Hang, we saw the phoenix diving into the Yurt on the land. It seemed saying to Marco that the Chinese with angels’ wings will return.

Let’s end the story with the picture of “ door keepers”: The End also can be the new start, if the door keepers know how to embrace the difference with the sincerity and true love.

May the heart towards the Earth of the Truth and the Love and the Peace are enpowered through all of us come together looking for oneness with the Earth and Heart.As while HH ( Humans Heart)are connected to make the circle , which is longing for the beauty of The-Art of creation, Earth and Heart can be seen in one word .
