Awe Wendy! You had me down memory lane with your blog. I grew up in Northern Maine and my Mom was French Canadian. She married my Dad, who was an American born in Bangor, Maine. My Canadian grandparents lived right across the border from my home town and we would walk to their house across the bridge into Canada. I biked when I got older. They owned a nearby convenience store and we were always up for that penny candy. I never liked fireballs; being afraid I would choke and die. Something my Mom said I think? Oh, I could go on and on, but I will leave the rest until we see each other again. I love your blogs and I thank you for this one! XOXO

Wendy, thanks so much for putting those memories “on paper” and sharing them. As the only girl cousin on R,R & R’s mom’s side of the family, who also grew up in NOVA, I have alot of those same memories. Age wise I fell between Roddy & Richie and although you were alot younger than me I remember what a treat it was to arive at my Aunt Judy’s and find out that “Trip and Wendy” were visiting too and I would not be the only girl this time! Thank you for bringing these memories back to life today so eloquently! It truly warmed my heart to read them and makes me long for that simpler, sweeter time!

Beautiful Wen. I cannot believe the memory that you have! I only remember half of those things that you mentioned in your blog and thats because you just recalled it. Amazing!! Truly a gift you have and I’m honored to be a part of your stories. I’m looking forward to many more stories together.
