This ship is in harbour this morning.
It is speculation on my part that it contains [and is off loading] material for the New Northern Store to be built here.
What is going to happen is: the old store will be pulled down, along with he old Take Out next door, and a brand new building erected over both sites.
Northern do not plan on forgoing any revenue during the construction, they have rented several properties around town. The old Fire Hall has been refitted; this will be the temporary home for the food department.
The Old Angnatok/Ford Bakery will be the temporary home for the clothing and dry goods. Several other properties will be used for storage.
In other news: The sports ream from the JHMS have retuned home as overall winners of the fall sports meet held in Makkovik this past week.
It was not long ago that the teams from Nain did not far well overall at these meets, things have changed and lately Nain usually come out on top or near top.
Our other grandson, the one I do not mention often, returned with six medals. I’m vague on the details yet.
Brian John is a rather shy bloke; he is in his last year at school and is very accomplished in various sports. He is a representative hockey player and does well in other events as well, hence the six medals.
