Roots


This is the Ferry approaching Swallow Tail Lighthouse, Grand Manan Island, New Brunswick, Canada. Grand Manan is where I was born and where many of my family live. It's a small island with a population of around 3000 in the Bay of Fundy. My spiritual roots are there as well. Grand Manan is home to 3 Wesleyan Churches and at least another 10 churches of other denominations. The sea, the beaches, the wildlife and the views make it one of the world's special places.

LOve this photo.

I am 73 and the grandson of Chester Guptill of Grand Harbor. My grandmother was Eula Guptill, a very bad driver of motor vehicles. My spell checker wants to correct that last name! Gubtael is no better!

Thought most of the Guptills were gone from the Island!
