John Saulinier ( whom I consider a good friend) was my next door neighbour in Gagetown before I released / 'retired' last aug sent & asked me to post this pic for him on the site today. Nic pic (heard a lot about it, but Fort York was before my time though; which makes me an old 'young whipper-snapper'?? )
