Fall Cottage Life Show

November 8th, 2008

What a great feeling. Its beautiful outside; its beautiful inside. Were going to have a fun weekend.

I started posting this yesterday, but we’re having trouble with our internet connection in the back room behind our booth at the Cottage Life Show. (Did you know there’s a back room? It’s where we keep bins of sweatshirts, t-shirts, and all the other cool CL merchandise, plus snacks for the staff, extra extension cords, tool boxes, boxes of flowers, and lots of other show support stuff. I can usually set up the computer on a box and blog away, but I’m actually writing this from the show hotel. It’s the morning of Day 2.)

There’s no problem with the computers in booth, itself, which is a good thing because the big news here is cottageliferentals.com, a new site for those who wish to rent out their cottagers or are looking to rent a cottage. We launched it at midnight Thursday night and will be here all weekend to guide cottage owners through the site. The first 250 cottagers to post their places receive a free listing for a year.

Hope to see you at the show!

Cottage Life rentals was launched at the fall show. If you can’t find us in the booth, check the ice cream stand next door.

I loved the Tastes of Cottage Country as well. My favourite presentation was the beer and cheese.

We enjoyed the fall Cottage Life show as well. It was nice to meet Sharon at the booth. The tastes of cottage country was great especially the chocolate tasting event.

It was a great show. We met some super people and enjoyed the atmosphere. I got my cottage registered on the new rentals web site and will be writing a review on the blog soon.
