“Dreaming of Spring”
What is it about one’s home town that tugs at the heart?
Most of us, especially those of us who grew up in small towns, couldn’t wait to leave town once we finished school. Many of us felt that we needed something bigger, more exciting, more sophisticated than a town with a half a dozen traffic lights.
Then we travelled afar , sometimes by choice and other times by necessity and as we aged ,came to the realization that the old home town wasn’t so bad after all.
I say these things because of the overwhelming response to my new feature, “Faces in the Crowd.” I routinely hear from ex-Antigonishers in different parts of the world. You can tell that they would love to be back having a slice of Wheel pizza, attending the Highland Games or watching a St.F.X. sporting event. Faces in the Crowd is a way for people to keep in touch with home and I am so happy that it brings you pleasure to see some old familiar faces.
By the way, please feel free to send me names of people you think should be profiled. Let’s face it… everybody has an unique and interesting story.
Have a wonderful week.
