Comments: Does anyone one have any pictures, or memories to share of the old Treesbank Ferry. I have such great memories of taking that back and forth across the Assiniboine River back in the 60's, getting to it from the bottom end of the Ranges, not far from the old Criddle Farm.
Comments: I lived at 28 Quebec Crescent with parents Jack and Margaret and brothers John and Paul from summer 1956 to May 1965.

Comments: Laurie Marsden found two military websites that she thought might have photos of interest for some of us. One is Meteorology class photos from all years on all military bases in Canada (your dad might be in one) there is one from Shilo in 1963, now posted with names in the Artillery Instructors album in the Gallery, and from other bases, Trenton, Gagetown, Winnipeg etc. if you lived there, or your dad may have been sent there on course. The other site is a photo gallery of D-Day Veterans taken in 1989, maybe there's a relative there.
Laurie tried posting them in the Guestbook, but website URL’s won’t post in the Guestbook as a spam deterrent. They have been posted in InterActive! in the category News and Upcoming Events. Look under Military photo websites from Laurie Marsden.

Comments: I lived at 127 Kingston Avenue from 1970-1972. My parents John and Kath Mills, brother Gary and sisters Jan & Lisa continued to live there until my Dad was posted to Germany in 1974.
Comments: I lived in Shilo from July 1963 to September 1969 at 3 Esquimalt Crescent. I have very fond memories of my time in Shilo and made many friends: Sheila Rowland, Pam Dent, Kay Schrot, Julie Laverty, Larry Connors, Jim Gradwell and many more. Ah, fond memories!!!
