What is a Kodiak Canuck? By the very word Canuck, I could say I'm a born Canadian, or I could say I follow the "Vancouver Canucks", which is one of six Canadian teams in the National Hockey League. I grew up on an island in British Columbia, and now live on an Island in the North Pacific, known as Kodiak, the "Emerald Isle".
Our delightful granddaughter Abigail Raine Tourbin, dressed up as a lion at her home in Port Angeles, Washington. "Abbie" has two older sisters, Elena, and Ava. But look at those beautiful dark eyes. Love it. I think this photo was taken in October 2009. Abbie's parents are Eric and Rebekah Tourbin

Harli Lin Ross at 14 months. This photo and a few more were sent to us from Harli's parents Richard and Jennifer Ross. She is very photogenic don't you think. We are especially excited for Harli's parents as she is going to have a brother born into their home the summer of 2010. We're pretty excited ourselves, as this will be the first "Ross grandson" to born into our family. See that red hair? It's a Ross trait. Harli has a number of cousins who have this same color hair. We think see's a little doll.Labels: Family

I was born in Vancouver British Columbia, and grew up on Gabriola Island near the Vancouver Island city of Nanaimo, where I attended Jr. High and High School, traveling each day by ferry. I am one of four siblings. My ancestry is Scottish, where in 1800 my ggg grandfather James Ross settled in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, in a community called Margaree. Three other grandfathers were born in Cape Breton including my grandfather James Alexander Ross who moved to the West Coast of Canada where my father Donald was born. I guess you might say island living has been a big part of my family and my heritage.
