In Sault Ste Marie they get up pretty early in the morning to come to a meeting! We met over a great breakfast shortly after I arrived on the overnight bus from Thunder Bay. Nine SSMarie'ers came including the dedicated lads who live 50 miles outside of the city!
We had a great discussion and talked about the community building going on in Sault Ste Marie and the welcoming approach they take on GLBT issues.
I was thrilled by the contacts -- and will certainly be keeping in touch with them as they plan a second conference "focussing on the gay family" this September.
Part of the Sault group -- others had to get to work!
The International Bridge (to USA)
Steel Plant
Another day -- another bus station
The bonus for me of the trip was being given a personal tour by Marni AND the offer of a ride bright and early tomorrow morning to Sudbury with the UCW! (United Church Women....for those who thought something less exotic). Thanks Marni!
