Comments: I grew up in Port Maitland and my name was Connie Noiles then.  I lived on Charles Street in the Ellis home until I moved to Massachusetts in 1956, I believe.  I try and come back every summer when my parents, Barbara and Carl Williams are there in grandma's house where I grew up.  In fact I will be there next week.  Finding this site was a great surprise and it's lovely.  Thank you.

Comments: I miss Yarmouth! I lived there for twelve years. I miss sitting in Frost Park
and eating Tim Bits on Saturday mornings. I miss going to Port Maitland beach,
the water was cold (your legs froze when you stepped in) but you didn't have
to worry about jellyfish.
 I miss attending Central School. I miss the field days, and playing in the
playground around it's trees. I miss all the friendly corner stores and knowing
who everyone is, I miss walking out my door and seeing the ocean.
 I guess I'm done reminiscing.

Comments: We are hoping to visit in August of 2000.  We are a family of 4 (children's ages:  7 and 6 as of next year.)  We would like to rent a cottage/small house on the ocean.  We have found many advertisements and such, but living in upstate New York and looking at words about a place we've not been in years is difficult.  We would appreciate it if you could send us any rental property listings you have, and phone/addresses/names so we can contact people to get a better idea of what is available.

Your website is wonderful.  Each time I look here, there is something new for me to read about, and makes me want to come visit that much sooner!

Thanks in advance,

Comments: I was browsing for acommodations.  My wife and I will be
vacationing from 4.9.99 to 26.9.99, and expect to arrive
in Yarmouth around 9.9.  We know little about Nova Scotia,
never having been there, and we intend to limit ourselves
to the south coast, going no further than Halifax,
and possibly to Digby or so on the Bay of Fundy.  The
Yarmouth area seems an ideal place to set up our "base camp".
