35 years ago this month

I received a letter in the mail from where I had worked the previous year as a summer student. There was a job for me. I accepted the offer very quickly.

I spent a few days staying with a friend whom I had met in Toronto whose family lived in Ottawa. I looked for an apartment downtown close to where I was going to be going to church. I found one easily.

I moved to Ottawa in early May and I started my work career as a librarian soon after. The building where I first worked is no longer there. It was a temporary building built during WWII but still around in the 1970s.
