The family arrives at The Bluffs 2013

On Sunday, August 11th the Bourque clan gathered at St. Francis of Assisi Church in Lincoln, to celebrate mass and dedicate a new stained glass window to the memory of their parents, Arthur and Anna. Father Monte asked Pat to explain the chosen theme, The Presentation of Jesus in the Temple, noting the UNB colours on Simeon!
















That evening, we hosted the Fourth Annual Sushi Dinner as our family arrived for their holidays:

The next morning, after a massive clean-up from dinner, we packed up the two trucks and met Brian at Nackawic to drive into the interior of N.B. to Mt. Carleton Provincial Park, where we stayed overnight in a cabin at Bathurst Lake and hiked to the highest peak in N.B. the following day for lunch. We had torrential rain as we arrived and again as we drove back home, but while there and during the hike, it was clear and beautiful!




We stayed in the middle cabin, with two rooms, sleeping about 10 people in bunk beds:
