Google Dynamic Maps
Dynamic maps allow you to zoom in and out of the location (there is a marker on each map indicating the location of the map's title), move the map around, and look at the map in different “views”.
Those of you who are familiar with Google's dynamic maps will have no problems navigating these maps. Those of you less familiar with Google's maps can go to a page I prepared, called How to use the Google Dynamic Maps, for some tips on how to use them. It also includes a practice map for you to fool around with.
If anyone has problems with these new maps or find that links bring up the wrong maps, let me know at gapellet@comcast.net.

I recently received and read
"Pelletier Chronicles - 500 Years" by
Lonnie Pelletier. It is an interesting
and entertaining blend of fantasy and fact about his ancestors
in the Guillaume lineage.
As Lonnie puts it:
"Part memoir, part history and part
evaluation of all that is Canadiana, this is a book that every
family can identify with. As a detective of history, the author
has presented chronicles that evolve in a manner that show that
truth often becomes more interesting than fiction. The reality
of ethic and serving, along with related local history, is
consistently introduced."
I highly recommend it to anyone in that
lineage. If interested, you can visit Lonnie's website at
www.LonPelletier.com
where you can see all of Lonnie's works which includes novels,
art, and music
Gigi Pelletier recently did a painting of La
Cristerie and has graciously submitted a copy for inclusion on
the site...
