OUR
" Our Avonlea...the
sweetest spot on earth...",
this
is how Hetty King described the fictional town of Avonlea, that we
first
became acquainted with in the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery,
the
author of "Anne of Green Gables".
A small town on Prince Edward Island, in the Canadian Maritimes. This
island
of great beauty - red earth, green softly rolling hills, sparking blue
ocean, cream colored sandy beaches, wild flowers growing every where ,
and the salty smell of the sea ... whispering softly in the distance
...
All this under the canopy of a blue sky dotted with white clouds.
Having once visited the island , it will always hold a tiny corner of
your
heart and call it ... home.
In the small northshore farming town of Avonlea we find
the
King family. Hetty King, the eldest is the local school
teacher.
Alec King ,who lives on the King Farm with his wife, Janet Ward
King
and their four children; Felicity, Felix, Cecily and the baby, Daniel.
Digger, a yellow dog, is the family pet. Roger King, the geologist, has
one son, Andrew; and he has moved to Halifax to work at
Dalhousie
University. Ruth King Stanley, lived in Montreal with her industrialist
husband, Blair and daughter, Sara. Upon her mother's death,
Sara went to live in Avonlea. The youngest King, Olivia King
Dale,
who is a reporter for the The Avonlea Chronicle,
lives
with her inventor husband, Jasper Dale, small son Montgomery and later,
an adopted daughter, Alysia.
Into the lives of the King family comes a young
orphaned
stranger, Gus Pike by name, whom they "...take in and treat as one of
their
own..."
