All Info Pertaining to The Highlands

All Info Pertaining to The Highlands
Jean and I moved to The Highlands in the Fall of 2007 from our home on Cousins Island in Yarmouth where we had lived for 30 wonderful years. I often think that I'd like to share a thought or an experience about our life here at The Highlands with other folks . . . and by this "blog" I am going to do so. One other thought. The Highlands is not in any way responsible for this website. This is wholly the personal responsibility of Stan Sylvester. Jean Sylvester has her own site at http://www.catcarewithlove.blogspot.com/ mostly devoted to her writings, her poetry and her experience as a professional cat care person in Yarmouth. SPECIAL NOTE TO VISITORS: In addition to scrolling down to view contents of my blog, when you reach the bottom you can click on "older posts" to review all the topics I've posted.

20th Anniversary Celebration of The Highlands

On September 30 and October 1 & 2 of 2010, the 20th anniversary of The Highlands was celebrated in grand style with receptions, cocktail party, celebratory song and poem, horse-drawn carriage rides, a barbeque and many more special events.



Jean Sylvester told Bruce and Alice Kinney, on their second day of residence at The Highlands, that a banquet of this type is not an every day meal.


Frank and Dorothy Farner dressed in their festive best for the cocktail party. Note the photo of a much younger John Wasileski on the wall behind the Farners.


Ellen Miller enjoyed the wine social.



Irma Russell always contributes to all the activities.

Marilyn Crandlemire composed and led us in singing the Anniversary Song, "Enjoy Yourself," which is reproduced below:
