I was born in the city of Oshawa, and lived most of my life on the shores of Lake Ontario. The area was unique as it was a resort area very upscale in its day with rental cottages and boats, plus privately owned cottages by such families as the.Lovell's (Lovell Drug Stores). All of this was at the end of Simcoe Street. Once you crossed the bridge covering the Oshawa Creek it was another world.The city seemed far away and yet it was just a few minutes. You had Lake View Park with all its offerings, including a petting zoo with Buffalo. Of course that was when I was very young. You had tomato fields on the west and cattle fields to the west and north, a driving range for golfers, the Oshawa Creek with a woods to explore and the main attraction the lake. Only a handful of family's lived here year round and thankfully my family was one. As an adult, I attended college and excelled in physics, and drama and many years later returned to college and received a diploma as a Physiotherapy Assistant. I became a Jacquelyn of all Trades and had many interesting jobs over the years, one was the manager of a hotel and another was a family consular for Mount Lawn Cemeteries and yet another was owning a business and living on Longboat Key in Florida. I have written 2 children's books (The Powder Puffs) for my granddaughter. The first one is Penelope and the Butterfly and the second is Thistle Meets a Flame Bird. I look forward to what the next adventure will be.
Sincerely,
Taylor Jacobs
