Montreal 1958

By
When I was 18 I was working backsstage painting props etc for a play "Bell Book and Candle". John Ford had the lead and I was totally in awe of this witty man. I had a crush on him...One night Nora Jean , John, my brother David Crandall and I went out to dinner. (Everyone was in the closet in those days and I didn't even know there was a closet.) We had wine with our meal and John and I toasted, linking arms to be followed by a kiss. Well as soon as we linked arms I spilled my wine all over John...and never got a kiss!.
I have remained in touch through the years but had not seen John since 1992. Talked to him two months ago though and had tried to call of late and no answer. I am sure he is smiling at all of us who are blogging for the first time... Lou Crandall Tarr

Bochsler Family Update

By
Last week I tried to "encourage" my family to post to this blog. I sent them all TERRIBLE pictures of themselves and threatened to post them here if they didn't post their own. Although they all responded soon enough to my threat, nobody has updated this blog yet. To be fair, this sort of thing is easier for me to do so I'll give a general update on the family. I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...

Some of Paul Bochsler's pictures

By
I took a million silly pictures, thank goodness some of y'all were taking the same shot and are better photographers, but here are a few from my camera's perspective. Gosh, I'm trying to upload a zillion of them and it only takes four at a time. Bear with me. Note the 'two Jacks', 'Peter, Paul & Mary', and the oldest and youngest of the cousins. Paul
