I spent a week with my Grandparents this summer, and found a book amongst their things. As I was leafing through it, I found a picture of my Great Grandmother and various cousins and such. How cool!
I have been searching for it on line since returning from Canada and wanted to get my own copy, and last week I finally found it. I ordered it from abebooks.com and the author even autographed it for me. Neat-o.
The book is by Caroline B Norwood, called Life On Brier Island Nova Scotia: Stories and Photos About the Place the People and the Boats.
If you happen to have the book, there’s a lovely picture of my Great Grandmother Viola Garron on her 90th birthday, on page 59. She had her 101st this year, and my uncle visited her over the summer. She had a bottle in her knitting bag, to keep her warm. You go, girl!
