These people were marching to save the Air Base in Chatham, NB. The base employed some civilians, plus it was a boost to the economy of the Miramichi. This march took place in July, 1982. This was also on the day that Gilles Villeneuve died in a crash in the Grand Prix race. I found this photo on the site Our Miramichi Heritage Photos. We are having a big Gathering this summer to celebrate our heritage, expecting thousands to attend, locals and those that used to be locals will all be there! You can take the person out of the Miramichi, but you can't take the Miramichi out of the person!!!

Happy Valentine's Day
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone! I looked around and found this couple kissing (from the Our Miramichi Heritage Photos) and found it rather cool as it seems to be triple exposed!
Then I went searching in my albums for something red for Valentine's Day. I came across me in a red dress, (1988).
This is my little "sweetheart" grand daughter, Katie Rose with a red flower in her hair.
Of course, I had to include The Red Shoes, I started the dance at the Moulin Rouge in Paris with this shoes on in October, 2012! A young lad from the South of USA and I started the dance and then the floor filled up with dancers, I guess they were just waiting for someone to start!!!!
I will finish off with a red rose from the garden after a rain last August.
Well, that's all I could come up with, a couple kissing, a red dress, a red flower in my Katie Rose's hair, shoes that started the dance at Moulin Rouge in Paris (with a handsome lad) and a red rose with a bud.
For more loving pictures, make sure to go to www.sepiasaturday.blogspot.com and beware of that Cupid Lad and his arrows.....

Seawind Jewelley shop in Grand Manan Island, New Brunswick, Canada.
When I saw this week's prompt in SepiaSaturday, I thought about the visit to Grand Manan Island, a small island south of New Brunswick, Canada.
I stopped off at a little shop called Seawind that was surrounded by a lovely and thriving garden, I was able to converse with the lady who made beautiful jewellery in this little shop.
Hope you like the pictures as much as I enjoyed visiting that little country shop that overlooked the hundreds of blooms in the garden, how good is that.
Even a dragonfly was enjoying her working, it stuck around long enough for me to take a couple of photos.
For more intriguing pictures of women at work and play, go to sepiasaturday.blogspot.com
Have a great weekend, may you be enjoying your season whatever it may be at this time of the year, here, it is Winter, and we have plenty of snow to prove it this year!!!!
