It reads: French Cross: Tradition has it that on this site Acadians from Belle Island wintered in 1755-56. In the spring of 1755 Pierre Melanson with an Indian boy crossed the bay for aid. On his return he died.Here you can sit and think about the Acadians and the man that went for aid with the Indian boy.View from the French Cross Road outside MordenSweet spot for a bath. The Kirk Brook was a bit cold but free!I continued on the French Cross Road. This SUV was never happier. Gravel road for hours.

North Hills Museum
The exterior of this tiny farmhouse, built in the 1760s, looks like a typical country residence, but inside it features a collection of great art and furnishings that create an impression of Georgian grandeur.
Robert Patterson purchased North Hills in 1964 and transformed it into a showcase for his outstanding collection of antiques. They included English china, oak, mahogany, and walnut furniture.
Patterson became a popular and valued member of the community through his efforts to form a local restoration group, and he was an early member of the Nova Scotia Heritage Trust.

My mother got me an Eurorail ticket when I was 15, and together with two friends, we adventured into France. This was the beginning of a new addiction. I do like to take pictures, so one thing leads to another. On this site, I want to share some of my pictures and some of my trips with you! Now I am on the road for more than 8 months every year. Visiting old friends and making new friends while exploring this big blue ball.
