My name is Sue Manwaring. Lac Brian in Quebec is my body of water.

This is where I went as a young girl, well as a baby and growing up until I was about 15 to my grandmother’s home in the summer.

Lac Brian was the lake and the beach we would go to with all my cousins and my whole family. We played in the water, I’d swim and I learned to paddleboat. I learned to boat at Lac Brian, I always remember that.

I remember building sandcastles there and watching the waves come in and move them away and would rebuild them again. It was a wonderful time and made me love the water and the outdoors.
