the 17-foot sunflower
A few years ago, my mother (the gardener, seen at right) planted dozens of sunflowers, one of which grew to 17 feet. (We measured it when we cut it down at the end of the season.) That year, the prize-winning sunflower at the Royal Winter Fair was just 19 feet tall. Imagine what we could have done if we had used "miracle-grow"!

Welcome to Elora, Fergus and the
3 Bears Bed & Breakfast
Valentine's Day is coming. Plan your Romantic Getaway now, with this special package, available throughout Valentine's Week.
Situated on an acre of mature cedars and gardens mid-way between Elora and Fergus, the 3 Bears Bed & Breakfast lies directly on the banks of the Grand River. With a rare, sloping walk-down to one of the most scenic (and best fly fishing) stretches on the river, you can spend days here casting for brown trout, or just chilling and watching for "Art", one of our resident Blue Herons. Here you have found the place where you can really
...exhale...
Our three guest rooms can sleep a maximum of nine (which is great if you're booking as a group or girls' getaway). However, two persons per room is typical. All rooms present a view of the river and the gardens. There's a firepit for late-evening marshmallows and story-telling, horseshoes, a hammock, and ample outdoor seating areas.
 Guest quarters are separate from the residence, so you'll never feel like you're intruding or be intruded upon. Your keyed access is via a private entrance through our Guest Kitchen, where you'll find a fridge, microwave, coffee, tea and other conveniences. The "Chart Room" features a pool table, piano, wood stove for winter nights, TV with DVD, a laptop computer with high speed and wireless internet, darts, board games and a small reading & DVD library. There's also a double door walkout to the guest patio and grounds.
Small touches will make you feel welcome, including fresh-cut flowers, bottled water, glass stemware and a welcome folder with maps and special event brochures in each room. There are blow dryers and bathrobes in each bathroom, and nightly turn-down service with a chocolate on the pillow. Full service gourmet breakfasts are created daily from scratch. And when you get hungry later, we have a good selection of area restaurant menus on hand, and will gladly make your dinner reservations.
 World-class fly fishing is accessible directly from our property. The Elora Gorge & Quarry, tubing on the Grand River, hiking / biking trails, shopping and the Wellington County Museum are all within a 5 minute drive. The market and shops of St. Jacobs are 25 minutes away. All in all, it's a getaway to remember!
