A visit to Summerside on a late October weekend. The wheather was great on the return trip on Sunday. Does the wind ever stop blowing on the Island?

A visit to Freeman Patterson Shamper's Bluff, New Brunswick
A visit to Freeman Patterson home at Shamper's Bluff New Brunswick on gorgeous late Oct. day. Joanne the gardener and I finished our work in the garden so it was time for a walk down to the bog. Freeman's dog Mia (of the earth) and my dog Holly (the little one) also tagged along. What a great morning .

Our Lady of Perpetual Help 1942- 2004(2007)
Our Lady of Perpetual Help was constructed in 1942 by George Flood & Sons on the corner of 
Almond Lane and Gondola Point Road, Rothesay, New Brunswick Canada. The building itself was constructed in the Gothic Revival style. Two long, slender windows were built on either side of the front entrance, the arc of which was hand- hewed. A rather unique feature of this building was its "Rose Window" over the front door. All of the windows were filled with beautiful stained glass. The steeply gabled roof was crowned by a small spire. Finials rose from each side of the front of the structure and spire, all being mounted with small crosses. The entire exterior of the building was covered neatly with pine clapboards. Interior design was achieved with the use of a variety of woods.
The Church has served the growing Catholic community well, becoming a separate parish in 1953. In 2003 a new $3.7 million church was built, triple the size of the old building and directly across the street. The reuse of some of the furnishings from the old church including the pipe organ, pews etc., went into the new church. On June 9, 2007 the old church succumbed to the demolition crew, as shown in the photos. I was there to photograph this memorable event. Families, priests, the young and old stopped by to see the sad event with many conflicting emotions. On Monday morning, following the demolition, a lady was looking for mementos for her daughter who had been married in this church. As time passes so too will the memories; new bonds and memories will be formed as the new church takes it place in the community.
