was a 'Wendy Thibeau' (Crosby)....who I'm assuming resides in Halifax now.
Did you use to live in Yarmouth? Your name rings a bell and am curious
if we possibly know each other. You had a simese cat and some kind
of bird (I think) and lived in an apartment with your mother......if this
sounds familiar, don't hesitate to contact me; it would be fun to hear
from you. My name back then was Pamela Thibeau.....had two older
brothers, Stanley and Jimmy (James). My mother's name was Helen Thibeau.
She passed away in July of 1998 and eleven months later my brother Jimmy
(James) passed away as well.

I haven't lived in Yarmouth since 1972 but I still get home a couple of times a year. It is always nice to walk the streets again. Does anyone know if the the Yarmouth High School alumnae web site is still active on line? It wasn't in fall of 2003. Hopefully everyone is rebounding after the terrible snow storm in Yarmouth last week. Did I hear 88 centimeters of snow? That is incredible. I can't wait to see a few pictures. well everyone have a good year. Steve Goudey

Comments: Hi: Just found my entry from a few years ago and decided I would say another quick hello to anyone reading this. Hard to believe it has been almost 7 years since I graduated and parted from Yarmouth. Beautiful place, and looking forward to spending a bunch of time there this summer. (the joys of being a teacher and having summers off!) Working in the arctic now, cool life! (haha no pun intended) Email me anytime if you read this, would be fun to see who might actually read this and from where you come. Bye for now,

across on the Cat from Bar Harbor, we went with one of the guides in a
minni bus and had an experiance we will never forget, we will one day get
to try and make Rappi Pie as we did enjoy that, most of all we did find
the people of Yarmouth to be very helpfull and very friendly.
