Former North Bay residents Rick and Tammy Boulley wish their friends and family in the city a merry Christmas. Photo submitted.Rick and Tammy Boulley have met their Waterloo, and love it.
The Boulleys, who lived in North Bay up until four years ago, now reside in the small Quebec village of Waterloo.
They decided to take advantage of BayToday.ca’s offer to transmit holiday wishes to their friends and relatives back here in the city.
“We would like to wish them all a very merry Christmas and all the best for 2005,” Tammy writes in an e-mail, “especially to Reg, Shirley and Kim Fournier, and our memere, Agnes Fournier, and last but not least Lindsay Boulley.”
Waterloo is located about 15 minutes away from Granby, Quebec, Tammy Boulley said.
“It’s a small town, something like Mattawa, and the people are all very friendly,” Boulley said, adding she and Rick moved there “to take things easy” for a while.
Tammy said she was recently was hooked up to the Internet and enjoys catching up with North Bay news on BayToday.ca.
She said the weather today in Waterloo gave her a sense of déjà vu.
“It’s -20 and with the wind chill it’s -38,” Boulley said.
“It reminds me back of being back in the Bay.
Snowmobiling is a big industry in Waterloo, Boulley said.
But more clement weather will be required to indulge in the products another industry in town makes: bicycles.
Raleigh, Boulley said, has an assembly plant there.
If you have any friends or family members living outside of North Bay who can’t make it back for Christmas, or know anyone else who does, they can pass on their wishes through the site.
We just ask they submit a recent jpeg photograph plus a little write-up about where they are now, what they’re doing, and who they’d like to say hi to.
They can send everything to
[email protected].
It’s just another free service of BayToday.ca
