Thoughts From a "Lost Canadian" About Prince Edward Island

As I wrote yesterday, Canada has Providences and Territories, so today I am going to share with you what this "Lost Canadian" has learned about one of these Providences - Prince Edward Island. 

A Quick "Look" at Canada for a "Lost Canadian"

As I wrote yesterday, I have lived most of my life in West Michigan. Growing up in the USA, I learned about the geography of this country and the history of it as well - at least the history they teach us in school. Now I know I am a "Lost Canadian", I am very happy to learn about the geography and history of Canada, so today I'm going to share some of what I am learning about the amazing land of Canada.

I'm a Lost Canadian!

I have lived most of my life in West Michigan, just thirty minutes from beautiful Lake Michigan. I lived for a few years in Northern California, two hours from Oregon, where I met my husband - but I was born in West Michigan and have lived most of my life here. Of course I knew my dad and my grandpa, but my great-grandpa died before I was born. Along with not knowing him, I also did not know - until last week - my great grandpa was born in Argenteuil, Quebec, Canada, and my great-great grandpa and great-great grandma were born in East Hawkesbury, Prescott, Ontario, Canada, and Argenteuil, Quebec, Canada.
