Southeast coast, down from Port Aux Basques...Grand Bruit.
My parents moved to Ontario when I was young, so we spent alot of summers going "home". I haven't been down in about 10 years, and now that they have closed alot of the little outports, my next trip will have to be to explore the island. I sure do miss the "Rock"! |

He was at argentia newfoundland naval base. He later was at Cornell University for officer training and married a New York girl from Rochester. He later drug her off (LOL) to Nebraska to spend the rest of her life.
BTW, they are both still living and are only a few miles from me. One of my first quilts was a red/white/blue rail fence for my dad, and then a more subdued quilt for my mom. |
