Debra, I'm not Fiftyandfine or Chick (but I left the quote on top so they'll see it), but I couldn't ignore this. My Mom was born and raised in St John's Newfoundland. I've been twice, when I was five and then in 1979 when I was hitch-hiking through Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. I loved Newfoundland, especially St John's and Brigus, which is where my Mom spent her summers.

I always feel a little closer to my Mom (she died 4 years ago) when someone here mentions her beloved Newfoundland...
