Road to Avonlea features some spectacular winter scenes that remind us of the beauty and joy!

After some intense winter weather in the northeastern U.S. this week, we thought everyone might be due for some hearty, warming fare. We think this dish looks both decadent and delicious - not to mention seasonally appropriate!

Shooting winter scenes in the heat of summer is not as challenging as you might think for filmmaker Kevin Sullivan.  In fact, A Wind at My Back Christmas, which contained scenes with a lot of snow, was actually filmed in late summer, early fall.  Here is a direct explanation from Kevin himself as to how he has managed to convincingly portray the season in a number of different productions, including Wind at My Back, Road to Avonlea and other films.

“The romance of winter was captured at its most illusory…” - Kevin Sullivan, on the filming of the proposal scene in Anne of Green Gables: The Sequel.

Viewers may not know that the location of the infamous proposal scene between Morgan Harris and Anne Shirley was chosen at the last minute under hurried conditions.
