Places again

I was thinking about places in my life as I went to a retirement lunch this week. It was in Gatineau (Hull sector) where I worked for a long time. It felt strange to be back there again. From November 1976 to October 2007 I worked at Place du Portage in Hull.

This made me think of familiar places in my life - I have mentioned them all before. Where do I spend my time and what other places have been important to me?

I have lived in my little house for 21 years.

I have worshipped at St. John’s Elgin Street for more than 36 years.

I have been engaging in horsy pursuits at Greenbelt Riding School for almost 36 years.

Of course I might have mentioned my attachments to Lachute and Montreal. I am not in either place often but they are very much a part of me.
