Where I grew up

Stones in the shallows of Lake Winnipegosis

On my way up to Mani­pogo for the gents’ camp­ing trip, I stopped in at a few of the places where I spent a lot of time in my for­ma­tive years. It might be a while before I go that way again, so I took some photos.

École Laurier, where I learned to speak French
Ste. Rose Collegiate Institute
The Ste. Rose Regional Library
The grotto at Ste. Rose du Lac, a replica of the grotto at Lourdes
The house where I grew up, nearly completely hidden behind foliage
The beach at Lake Winnipegosis
The farmhouse
