Our granddaughter has turned out to be a pretty good young athlete. She had participated in swimming, soccer, basketball and volleyball, and was very good at each for the age groups she participated in. As a freshman in high school she has decided to focus her skills on volleyball and went out for trials to make one of the teams. They have two Freshman teams, two Junior Varsity teams, and a Varsity team. As they all went through the drills the coaches used to evaluate their talents they coded each to select the team members. Coach shared the coded sheet with our daughter (“MS”, “OH”, and “WCS”) but there was one code she couldn’t figure out. Have to admit I'm using someone else's photos, but they tell the story I was working on.

Wish this barn could tell us it's story!

It was on the property that my son bought in New York....Packed with all kinds of stuff...They had rigged it with heavy duty wire to keep it from falling down..We were worried that the kids could get hurt by it
So unstable...so we pulled it down,,,,Wish it could have told us it's history! We know that a horse lived there-that's about it!

The story here is this fellow, a Gauthier, was raised way back in the country, maybe a hundred miles from where he is visiting now, St-Irenée, Charlevoix Co. He asked me if I knew where just maybe his family originated from after migrating to Québec. Naturally they started out in the city back in the 1600's but moved to this area. The only access was by the river. His gr-grandfather left here in a boat and went finally to the end of Lac-St-Jean where he logged and farmed

In the last photo along the coast many many villages have set up their cemeteries with a view of the river, the St. Lawrence because of its importance in their lives

Here is another one, The Tremblay, Bouchard, Girard and Gagnon families arrived in Charlevoix Co. hundreds of years ago and are still there. Some who originated there, many ofr that manner moved to the Saguenay - Lac-St-Jean area, all done by boat. Today you meet up with them anywhere Florida, New England and other arts of Canada .. ''Your family are from Charlesvoix/Saguenay?'' . Yes we are

This is a Christmas turkey and it is not real. It is a display prop i volunteered to make to achieve our teams production deadline because the person who was supposed to do it could not deliver and there was no available ready-made item that we can buy. This is huge, almost 2 feet long by 1 and a half feet wide and high. It was repaired several times during our display period because costumers/visitors kept pulling the leg out.

Not much of a picture but more of an unforgettable experience.
