Trudy's Story
Life...
It's been awhile since I moved to B.C. from St.Catharines, Ontario, but enjoyed frequent visits 'back home' while my parents were there.
I love to learn, read, write, paint, sculpt, and do anything creative.
After high school, an Early Childhood Education diploma from Niagara College, plus university courses focusing on special education, I've worked in the child care business for 30 years, supervising preschools and day cares, as a child care worker and a foster parent, then worked in the school system with handicapped kids. It was strange to find myself there again since I really didn't enjoy going to school... until college, when learning became more exciting.

evon, 22, and daughter Rachel, 20, finds the city life of Vancouver more exciting than this quiet logging town, but Nick, 25, takes after me, enjoying the beauty and serenity of living on the edge of the rainforest and ocean, surrounded by glaciers, at the foot of the mountains.
When the 2010 winter Olympics came to Vancouver and Whistler, only 30 minutes down the road, it created lots of changes. I came to this spectacular mountain town when there was only 1 stop light and now we have a 4 lane highway, Walmart, Home Depot, London Drugs, etc! Luckily, it's still a beautiful, quaint place to live.
It's been great to meet old friends and acquaintances here...love to hear from you!
