Charles Patrick's Story
Life
Let's see; after Clairmont, I worked for the ferries for a year and a half before moving to 100 Mile House where I fell in love with the area. I stayed there for about 5 months then moved to Calgary where I worked at the U of C for about a year. Loved Calgary, but missed the island & family more so I moved back and worked at everything from a fish plant to being a logger near Naniamo. In 1972 I moved back to 100 Mile where I went to work for Weldwood of Canada in their planer mill. Now 35 years and counting I still work for the same company ( aothough they have been bought and changed names several times ) and am the senior millwright in their sawmill. ( All that expereance hasn't helped my spelling any though. Sorry, Mr Cross.)
I was married for 5 years and got a bea...Expand for more
utiful daughter from that relationship before it ended. My current ( and final ) wife met on the internet and have been married for 9 years now. It seems like only 2 or 3. We are empty nesters and thinking about retirement and all that that entales. She is from New England but her mother and most of her siblings live in Denver, Co. That means that we travel to both places as often as we can. Luckly they are both in my list of favorite places.
My only complaint in life is that I don't like being a 25 year old, trapped in a 57 year old body. LOL
