Eagle Heart Member Registered: 03/22/05 Posts: 4876 Loc: Canada	Dahti, I never heard of the "Octagon Castle". Do you know which part of Newfoundland it was in? St John's? My Mom probably would have known about it.

Dahti Blanchard Member Registered: 03/18/05 Posts: 93 Loc: Washington state	Eagle, It was in Paradise near St. John's. The Paradise town website has a little on it but they list the last owner as "Robert Farlow." It was actually my grandfather Aaron Fowlow. And of course, my grandmother, who didn't get mentioned at all, Anna Fowlow. She was one of my favorite people in the whole world and she told me a bit about the place.

mrs_madness Member Registered: 09/29/05 Posts: 217 Loc: Moscow	No I meant Russia as in Moscow. 2 years and I'm here for 2 more for sure. The land of millions of beautiful young girls. Generally I like it, but it's not an easy place to be. And no, I'm not Russian, I barely speak a little garbled Russian. The internet is my connection to sanity.

Eagle Heart Member Registered: 03/22/05 Posts: 4876 Loc: Canada	Dahti, I've been to Paradise. I don't remember too much about it, because I was on my way to somewhere else. I wonder if you can contact the people in Paradise (maybe through the website) and set the record straight. They'd probably really appreciate the contact and historical background from the owner's granddaughter.

Junebug Member Registered: 09/24/05 Posts: 171 Loc: 10 yrs in OH now, 47 yrs in Tx	Texas bred, born, raised, raised children, started raising grandchildren - 47 yrs, Now Ohio 10 yrs. Don't get me wrong, I like Ohio, but my heart is in the Texas Panhandle, along with most of my family and friends. I am disable and do not drive, so I have never really had the chance to make real friends here. But I am OK! lol I have the phone and took a 33 day trip to Texas this summer to see family and friends. I got all I could handle, I mean I got a lot of time with them. LOL But I would rather be in Tx with them all!
