Events Are Staying The Same This Year!

               I know there has been no news on the blog nor the website itself about events and with my dad's health I was holding back on the announcement. However with him recovered I am happy to say ALL Events are remaining the same this year for the most part with an addition and removal of 1 or 2:

May- Maple Festival in Bowmanville

June- Peony Festival, Oshawa

July- Canada Day (Returning since 2019?, TBD)

August-  Rib  Fest, Oshawa

                Kars on King, Oshawa 

September- Orono Fair 

October- Apple Festival, Bowmanville

November-  The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, Toronto

                     Tree Lighting and Merry Berry Market, Oshawa

December- Tyrone Parade of Lights 2024

                    Toronto Christmas Market 2024

                 The event that has been removed as it is not local it's in the north and little far to go is the Auto Fest which I was really devasted about but it is what it is, I have added in an event. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Tyrone Parade of Lights 2023!

                    

       I will explain everything at 11 am what the heck happened with the blog yesterday that will be the first basic part of the end of the week updates! Anyways Wednesday day and a half ago I was at the Tyrone Parade of Lights. We visited Tyrone Mills and got ourselves a nice Apple Cider and a Coconut tart which was very, very delicious. I love anything Coconut and it was very delicious and enjoyed it but we ate it after the parade as we were busy with enjoying the floats going by us. 

         So we got out, I got to finish up the Apple Cider the parade started and it was pretty quick like a few minutes after we got outside of the mill which was awesome. I loved a lot of the changes the floats had this year and this year I think one or two floats were the same and actually a lot of different ones as well. We actually got to go look at them very close up to the tractors and went crazy on Instagram and tried to take some pics. I need to work on the bigger camera for night shots it's work in progress. However I enjoyed the parade as this was for the first time in 4 years that we have attended and look forward to the next one next year because I can tell you all it is on the schedule. Anyways that is the post and I will speak to All in 2 hours or less depending when you read this post.

Updates, Great Things Happening for Us!

            Question I've had is where's Chris? I just heard from him this morning and talking time away from running the day to day of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media and right now Brianna, Larry and I continue to work on what we are doing. I know he's had a rough last week or two and we worry about him on a regular basis. Just hope he continues to stay committed to CBOTW Media. However there is great things happening for ChrisBOnTheWeb Media! Chris has gotten a lot of great news moving forward.

           What great things that are happening? 1) Chris and Larry will be recording this week for The CBOTW Show and the image has been floating around on social media and the two of them will be recording Home Alone and Home Alone 2 podcasts! Which is exciting and I knew this piece of information right off the bat so I made that image, on the right. Also Chris is INDEED returning to the Tyrone Parade of Lights this year! Very excited news indeed and this year has been a bunch of surprises for CBOTW Media this and I am really impressed we have started going back to certain events. That is the post for today folks, I'll talk to you all tomorrow as I am taking over for him all week.

Cancelled Going To Events For The Remainder of 2020

            As Founder and Owner of ChrisBOnTheWeb, I have come to a very difficult decision late last night.  As you all know we are all dealing with COVID-19 and most of the events locally here and in Toronto have been cancelled. Which made me come to a very, very difficult decision to CANCEL any of the events that were planned into May right through to the end of the year. These are the following events that I am cancelling going to this year: 


Bowmanville Maple Festival- May 2020
Food Truck Friday, Bowmanville- June 2020
Canada Day Celebrations- July 2020
Rib Fest, Durham Ontario- August 2020
Orono Fair (Fair was cancelled itself)- September 2020
Polish/Ukrainian Festival- September 2020
Apple Festival- October 2020
The Royal Winter Fair- November 2020
Tyrone Parade of Lights- December 2020


            Now we do not know about Polish/Ukrainian Festivals, Apple Fest, The Royal Winter Fair and Tyrone Parade of Lights but as for me this year, I am planning to not attend any of these festivals as it is uncertain what the outcome of this virus will be, whether we get a second wave of the virus but HONESTLY as I said to my Staff, I do not feel comfortable going into large crowds, especially not this soon after the virus is over, just do not feel quite comfortable and it will take me some time to get use to being out and about in the public again but come 2021 we will be back at events and stronger then before. So this means any flyers, I hand out right now will be CBOTW (Including Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast) & Everything About Reality TV for promotion, nothing else. I apologize for the inconvienence but as I stated with the current events in the world, I think this is the best move for CBOTW and mainly myself as I do every single event. We look forward to 2021 Events and again we are deeply sorry as we know you enjoyed those event posts but we promise to make it up to you guys for the rest of this year.

Tyrone Farmers 20th Anniversary Parade 2019!

            So yesterday, I got to go to the Tyrone Farmers Parade for the first time in 2 years as last year the weather was bad and 2 it happened to be on my birthday which is today and on a Thursday. Anyways, we were not going to go originally however we decided to go anyways despite we were tired as we worked on the walls in the studio which an update is coming Sunday afternoon's blog post. So we went and on our way we ended getting snow falling which honestly made the experience nice. We went down to the actual mill and wanted to get cider and donuts but the line-up was absolutely insane. However the way I think of it that is definitely good for the business. Anyways we walked back up the damn hill which mind you I was exhausted by the time I got back up the hill I was exhausted and panting hard but hey I survived. We went all the way up to where the church was and stayed put for the remainder of the time we were there. Ran into another fellow bowler that bowled in the same league for at least 10 plus years that I was in that league and it was great to catch up with em as the last time I saw them was at the Orono Fair.


        We waited quite some time for the parade to start and I was getting pretty stiff honestly with the waiting game but when it started there was over 10 different floats that I saw as it is actually their 20th anniversary so it was a bonus and if I remember correctly I have been going since I was still in high school at the time so that spans over 10 years for him and I doing this event. One bonus thing about this parade too is the fact they actually had the vintage tractors too and also people riding horses so it was pretty special 20th anniversary. So we are guessing this parade was done in 1999 just before my final year in elementary school before the start of high school. Either way we had a good time despite the wait but in the end it was truly worth going and looking forward to the parade in 2020. One final thing to say is next week I am off to the last event for 2019 which is the Christmas Market in Toronto to wrap things up for events in 2019 so I am definitely looking forward to that and stay tuned to social media when I am heading there.

More Food Reviews and Events To Come!

         Hopefully this month and the next couple I will get a chance to do some food reviews. the plan right now was to do the Rib fest locally but I am not sure if that is going to be happening this weekend as my dad hasn't mentioned the Rib Fest so I am guessing it is not in the plans but I will talk to him see if he wants to go down for a while and try some ribs. I really wanna get back into that Rib Fest and I think it will be a fun time plus gives me some content for this blog honestly. If we don't then the next review would be all the way at the end of September for the Ukrainian and Polish Festival and I know that is a long way off but for now you guys may end up waiting on reviews for a while. There is other content you guys can read or listen to throughout the site and what not. Anyways event wise I am in the same boat as you all know I pulled out of a pile of events because they weren't working for me or my dad as he comes to most of em as he is like my chaperone which is nice to have someone at the events, especially the family. I wish there were events to go to in July and August but that are the very quiet months for me. May and June I have a few on the list but I wanna see if there is anything in July and August that I can cover. Also as you know I am no longer involved with the Autism Celebration yet I still have the board and haven't had a chance to dismantle it. 


             Now come this fall, I was suppose to do a few food reviews with a member of the Alumni, however they are no longer part of CBOTW and yes I am referring to the Co-Host of Power Rangers Podcast, anyways, I could get my dad to come along or Eric to come along as they both like it but where are you guys talking about? Five Guys Burgers which we got here in Canada apparently which I never knew till I went to the Walmart then I discovered Five Guys there so it is on my list. Another one and if someone starts talking things out to not only get the PR Podcast back up and running again, but to also do a run to Pop Eyes and try their food there and do an review from there. But we will see what happens. Event wise end of September like I said Ukrainian and Polish Festival will be coming up fast and will review the food there on a separate blog post. Then in October will be doing the Apple Festival followed by the Royal Winter Fair, Port Perry in December and Tyrone Parade of Lights to finish up the year in events. 2020 there will have to be some changes and additions to the list of things as Greek Festival and Autism Celebration has been pulled from the schedule so that leaves open some space but never know what will pop up.

The Tyrone Parade of Lights 2017

             This year at the Tyrone Parade of Lights, was a bit frustrating to deal with the missing battery pack at the start of the parade which it was left here in the studio and let me say, I've loaded it for tonight's event I am going to, hence no Everything About Reality TV Podcast tonight and it's going up tomorrow. So every year I go to Tyrone and have been for about 10 years now. 


              So to take pictures were taken by my IPhone obviously as I messed up forgetting to load the camera battery last night. One thing I did find very frustrating with this parade the fact they said 730 pm and it didn't come till 20 mins to 8 O'Clock so they were late and boy I wasn't happy, I wasn't having it, I was not a happy camper and I wanted to go home and forget this parade. I even said to my dad, I wasn't going to come back next year, but I had second thoughts not long after. 


                Once the parade started, I enjoyed it, actually I noticed right off the bat there was a lot of new floats then last year so or there were additions to the parade then they had last year minus the first float as you see above and on the left side of this blog Santa on his Case Tractor but with a trailer this year that probably was the only one that was in this parade as they changed but I would have to go compare notes and I will do a follow up blog next week once I know what the differences are and it will make a different blog post and I wanna compare notes to last year's parade. Also the parade had more floats then last year and it was even better then last year, but my dad mentioned they should start it 30 mins earlier then they normally do. Other then that when it finished I said yes, I would go back next year no matter what happened this year with the late parade because I really do enjoy these parades each and every year with my dad.



Have  a great rest of your day!

It was unfortunate that I had to drop out of the event but I will be back at the Autism Celebration next year, bigger and better then ever! I am still waiting on the Media pass for the Royal Winter Fair but I will let you know if I get it or not but will be taking pictures regardless of having it or not. I will be doing another blog post later on about my trip up North for the day.

Tyrone Parade of Lights & 70th Blog Post!

First of all this is my 70th Blog Post, cannot believe it has been this many blog posts already and time has flown by very very fast and I am only 30 posts away from 100 and trust me it will be a special one indeed. I cannot believe I keep on writing these blogs for you guys and I am sure you guys are enjoying my blog posts each and everyone that comes out on a almost regular basis. Trying to keep on a daily basis, however at the most it is every second day at the most if worse comes to worse.

Anyways the main focus of this blog post is the Tyrone Parade of Lights up in Tyrone. Obviously I went with my dad and my 5 year old niece and nephew and was neat in a way to share this experience with them and what I do as a blogger, going to local events and taking pictures and writing a blog post about it. This is what I enjoy on top of the podcasts I do on the website. So we arrived we got cookies and hot chocolate for the kids, always for the kids as Dan Gheesling says on his playthroughs. I didn't indulge due to me still on my diet and I am on my diet till i lose the weight I want. So the wait started, I was cuddling with my niece which before we went, she was being dramatic, typical 5 year old... yes... I played around with her we were playing around with the snow that was on the ground and what not. We then eventually moved down the road a bit and it began. I recognized the first tractor, the white one with the stars sticking out so we knew that was always in the first or second tractor. Some tractors or truck in the farming community we didn't recognize so was nice to see some new entries as well as entries from past parades. In conclusion the parade was once again amazing and loved every moment of it. Below is a few pics.

Have a great night everyone!
