"About me"

I was born on a little island in Bonavista Bay, Newfoundland called St. Brendan's. In the early sixties,the Newfoundland government sponsored a resettlement program and the inhabitants from all the neighbouring islands were moved to the mainland. The people of St. Brendan's refused to move, and even today they still enjoy life in the peaceful community. The main industry at that time was fishing. I still remember seeing the sailing ships in the harbour as the fishermen prepared to go to Labrador. This is probably what spawned my interest in tall ships and lighthouses.

Anne, my wife, was born in Fleur De Lys, a community in White Bay, Newfoundland. Fleur De Lys has a fine harbour and was a stop-over haven for ships sailing to Labrador. If you want to know more about the history of Fleur De Lys, please check out the following links.
