Sandland, on Charlottetown's historic waterfront is an art gallery of a different sort. Eight artists worked for over a month to transform tons of Prince Edward Island's famous red dirt into an exhibit of the island's history heritage and culture. Using trowels, specially designed plastic tools and (yes really)drinking straws they turned compacted wet sand into boats, bags of potatoes, fiddlers and - of course - Ann of Green Gables.

When David Wilmer first saw the building that would become the Inn at Bay Fortune it had gone through a number of incarnations. First as the summer home of Elmer Harris, later the year-round residence of Colleen Dewhurst and finally as an abandoned tumble-down ghost haunting PEI's eastern shore. What he and his team accomplished in rescuing the property from the wrecking ball is nothing short of remarkable.

Most people – the sensible ones among us at any rate – use washing machines to separate dirt from our clothes. On Prince Edward Island Michael Wheeler and his company, P.E.I Dirt Shirts have reversed that process. Not only do they ADD the island's impossible to remove red dirt to wash loads of perfectly clean clothes – but he and his crew of 19 part time workers have built a business out of selling the dirt coloured shirts caps socks and other clothing . We were so intrigued by PEI dirt shirts we called Mike to learn more. He agreed to meet us at his “factory” - in reality an old converted rural church – where, in the course of an afternoon he showed us how he makes “dirt shirts”, shared his thoughts on summer wages and told us a story about one of the more memorable purchases of a PEI Dirt Shirt.

Thanks to the people at Experience PEI and Tourism PEI my daughter and I had a chance to go out on the waters of Salutation Cove with the men who fish for oysters. Back on land, at Future Seafoods, we graded, cleaned, shucked and (of course!) ate our catch. Although the wind and rain swept across the cove it was one of the highlights of our road trip to Prince Edward Island

One of the surprising highlights of our road trip to Prince Edward Island, Canada was the evening we spent at the Charlottetown racetrack as "owners" of a race horse. We toured the stables, talked to the drivers, had an amazing meal and perhaps - you'll have to watch to find out - stepped into the winners circle. I even got a chance to sit with the starting judge in the mobile gate.

By the time we hit Charlottetown we'd spent a week eating our way across Prince Edward Island. We had over-indulged in locally raised beef in Brackley Beach, eggs from free range hens in Bay Fortune and oysters we'd pulled out of Salutation Cove. So you'd think we would pass on ice cream for lunch.... not when confronted with a sign outside Cows claiming the best ice cream in Canada!

We think the chance to share an artist's passion and creativity in their place of work should be special. For the last few years friends of ours have been urging us to visit Lake Memphremagog, a 90 minute drive from Montreal in the Eastern Townships of Quebec. They claim the local summer studio tour is a one-of-a-kind, can't-be-missed event that more than lives up to our criteria. Based on their recommendation we headed off to Quebec's Eastern Townships to find out what makes CIRCUIT DES ARTS MEMPHREMAGOG such a hot ticket. Watch our video report.

We've been hearing stories about something called a Perch Roll, apparently a local delicacy in the town of Lancaster, Ontario. All anyone needs to do is tell us about a dish indigenous to a region and (pardon the pun) our appetite for discovery is fully whetted. Is there REALLY such a thing as a Lancaster Perch Roll? Does it deserve its reputation? The Roadflix crew headed for the Eastern Ontario town last weekend to find out. Watch our video report "A Search for a Perch"
