Fierté acadienne dans le comté de Northumberland
Visit any French community in the Maritimes this month, and you will see houses decorated as the one pictured below. I took this shot on Friday near Néguac during a sales appointment. Almost every house and business along the route had banners, signs, and elaborate decorations, displaying their Acadian pride. This year marks the 400th Anniversary of the arrival of Pierre Dugua, Samuel Champlain and 77 other men who carved out the first French settlement in the New World. Take the time this summer to discover your family roots -I bet you have some Acadian blood in you.
