Awesome New Brunswick: Millennium Series 31
This journey takes us on a train from Grand Central Station, north along the picturesque Hudson river to Montreal. A quick overnight stay then it's Via Rail overnight to Campbellton New Brunswick. This area is the home of the first three generations of my mothers family who arrived in Canada from Ireland in the 1800s. We spend an enjoyable few days in Campbellton, touring, shopping, and we meet a distant relative, visit with a giant fish, and revel in a glorious sunset. This is preceeded by dinner in a world class restaurant. Join us for in hospitable Campbellton. Meet some friendly people, restigouche Sam and view the incredible sunset. As usual there are lots of pictures. Please join, my mother, aunt and I and feel free to comment in the discussion area. ME

Nothing can be like it was: Merete Morken Andersen and Oceans of Time
Oceans have a way of closing in behind you. For a moment, you are there, bobbing in the briny water with the sun glancing off your skin. Then you are under, gone without a trace as those you’ve left behind search for answers to your disappearance. In much the same way, suicide is a death that defies description; it is a disappearance that seeks explanation, not in the act itself, but in the waves that have engulfed it. It is this sort of shadow-play that has propelled Norwegian author Merete Morken Andersen’s <I>Oceans of Time</I> to international recognition.
