What’s the Buzz in Oakville? Hilary Launches New Blogsite!
November 4th, 2007 Categories: Lighten Up, Oakville Events, Oakville Real Estate News, Oakville Town Planning & Development
When I opened the paper this morning, on the front page of the Life section was the word buzz in huge letters, with a picture of bees on a honeycomb! The article is about urban apiarists.

“What’s the sound behind the hedge?” says the subtitle.
“Renegade beekeepers are quietly tending their colonies in backyards, on porches and rooftops”, all across the GTA! Who would have thunk it?
Backyard beehives are illegal, but our good friends at the Globe and Mail have blown their cover.
I don’t have time to do honey-making, but this leads me to my vision for the blog.
People, not just bees, are talking together and interacting! They are socializing and working and playing. There most definitely is a “sound behind the hedge” in this community. Wherever people are, folks are jabbering! This creates a buzz.
So what’s The Oakville Buzz about?
Whatever Oakvillians are interested in talking about, especially as it relates to Oakville housing and living in Oakville.
I will be ‘buzzing” around town interviewing locals, taking photos of cool things and reporting on community goings-on, local people and real estate.
I’ d like to introduce Boris, my side-kick and muse. Don’t you love his toothy grin and bulging eyes, one bigger than the other?
Please do stop in regularly for a visit and leave me a comment.
By the way, oakvillebuzz.com is the site for our Oakville lacrosse team. My site is TheOakvilleBuzz.com.

Hey Hilary,
I look forward to getting all the “Buzz” in Oakville. You have an awesome looking site and I actually do like Boris a bunch. I bet he is a BIG stinger in the Real Estate market!
Hilary,
Hilarious. You opened the Oakville paper and they were writing about you and your friend Boris! Sort Of. Thanks for keeping us posted on Oakville real estate, I hear home sales are booming in Canada. Terry McDonald
PS Boris is going to be a star.
Good Morning Hilary! Looking forward to socializing and subscribing to your feed…getting the “buzz” on Oakville.
Hilary - I love your side-kick! I’m sure your site will be the buzz of Oakville! Congratulations!

Hi Hilary,
From a “would-be blogger” to a real live blogger, thanks for the tips.
Hope the “buzz” is a-spreading and the honey is a-flowing. You make me almost want to move to Oakville (although Saint-Lazare, I am convinced, is going to be hard to beat!)
L8R,

Dr. Darrell- your new website is just terrific, and I know your blog will have some wonderful writings when you get going with it.
Can’t wait to see your new victorinan home in St-Lazare.
Hilary
