My father was born in Ottawa, Ontario, and the family moved to the Timmins area when he was a baby. The Timmins area is really three adjacent towns: Timmins, Porcupine and South Porcupine. I made trips up there with him and our family to visit his mother and relatives. I want to build this page and share with you my memories, dating back to 1960.
I don't have many pictures of those trips, so I am deciding on how to build this page. My father, and my father's relatives all over Canada from Ontario to British Columbia are a wealth of info and history on Canada. My father's Canadian side, is an important part of me, as is my mother's Tennessee side.
So, I think, since I like to show my own perspectives on my pages, I will definitely have to make a trip there again, and take lots of photos. And, also, I will add my dad's perspectives, and some of his photos. So this will be Don & Dad's Canada page! This will take time, but when I eventually do this, it will be worth it to you VT members.
So, for now, this page is on hold, and I will be on a mission to eventually build it.
The gold mines, hockey, beer, moose hunting, are subjects I want to relate to you, as well as blueberry picking and blackflies in the summer and all kinds of stuff!
Thanks for your patience!
Don
