Suede Announces the 2016 Blue Picardy Calendar!!!

...He's not on the cover, but he is still pleased with the result 

We are very, very pleased to finally announce the 2016 Blue Picardy Calendar!!

Perfect for gift-giving, this 8.5" x 11" calendar is spiral-bound and printed in full color.  We kept the traditional calendar format from previous calendar versions, so lots of space for writing those important dates.  Both US and CDN holidays are included.

For 2016, our cover model is "Truman", Suede's brother.  This is Truman's first cover and boy is he a handsome Blue! Once again, we received quite a few submissions from all corners of Canada and the USA.  To everyone that submitted a photo, as always a great big "Thank you".  Without all of you, our little calendar really wouldn't be possible.  So we always try to include as many photos as possible.

Something that has also changed for this year is an increase in postage.  Thanks again to our friends at Canada Post and USPS.  Unfortunately, as our shipping/mailing costs rise, so does the price of the calendars.  We are really trying to keep our prices as low as possible, but the shipping costs are just BRUTAL!!  

Individual calendars are priced at just $15.00 (for Canadian orders) and $20.00 (for US orders). Price includes shipping.  

Ordering is quick, easy and secure using the handy PayPal links below.  For those that would like to continue to pay via cheque, please send an email to zoeandcoullah@gmail.com.  

**Please email us if you would like to order over 5 calendars.  A discounted rate will be applied.

We know we are late this year, but will try our best to get calendars out in time for the holidays!



For all Canadian Orders: Please send me: 1 calendar $15.00 CAD 2 calendars $25.00 CAD 3 calendars $35.00 CAD 4 calendars $45.00 CAD 5 calendars $55.00 CAD

For all US or International Orders: Please send me: 1 calendar $20.00 USD 2 calendars $30.00 USD 3 calendars $45.00 USD 4 calendars $55.00 USD 5 calendars $60.00 USD

 

Where the heck is that calendar???

Very good question!

Due to some 'technical issues', we are very, very late with the 2016 calendar this year. Our sincere apologies.  We have full intentions of cranking the calendar out, but our first priority has to be quality.

We have received some amazing photos this year thanks to everyone so its very important to do justice to them and deliver a great 2016 calendar with all of our beautiful Blues. 

For the 2016 edition, we will be returning to the 8.5" x 11" format, with cerlox binding - so smaller than 2015.  As always, there will be plenty of space for writing in those important dates.

Order information will be posted here by the end of this week.  Thanks to everyone for their patience, we appreciate it big time!

Wow! Long time no post!!!

So much to post!  So behind... where to start??  2015 Picardy Picnic?  June's Adventures?  Dapper at the Dog Show?  How about this.........

2016 Blue Picardy Club Calendars!!!

Yes!!  It's (past) that magical time of year when we begin putting the calendars together.  So... please send us your photos!  As always, please avoid phone shots.  They just plain don't work!   For those of you at the 2015 Picnic... we may have a shot to send your way... just let me know.  However, your own photos are always best - you know your Blues way better than we do! 

So get those cameras working!!

Please send your favourite photos to: zoeandcoullah@gmail.com

Coullah and Dax are waiting for your photos!!

June: The Blue Nomad

As Coullah spends her days in and around home in Hamilton, her sister June has become quite the traveller.  From North Carolina to New Mexico and beyond, June and her humans have been experiencing some of the most gorgeous countryside that the US has to offer.  Over the next few posts, I'll be featuring just a few of June's adventures.  A big thanks to Erika for sharing... xo

In the meantime, I couldn't resist sharing this video.  Here is June running through a field of Blue Bonnets in Austin, TX.  A Blue in blue bonnets.....

 

The 'Right' Coast

In July we travelled out to Nova Scotia for 7 amazing days in July.  Kypros and I both fell in love with the Province and plan on returning for an extended stay.  From Lunenburg to Brier Island... to the place we called home, Broad Cove.  It was a wonderful week. 

Although we didn't take Zoë and Coullah, we were still in the company of two fine Blues:  3 month old Schooner and 14 year old Quinn.  Here are just a couple photos of the boys:

Very Handsome!

Schooner

On a personal note:  Again, thank you so much for your travel tips, hospitality, ... and above everything else, your friendship.  We truly enjoyed our time in the Cove and are looking forward to spending a lot more time on the Southshore!   

To everyone else:  If you find yourself on the Lighthouse Route, please do visit  Best Coast Coffee Gallery,  located in beautiful downtown Broad Cove, Nova Scotia.  You will not be disappointed! 

 

Did we hear what we think we heard??
