About Me

My photo
Colin Paterson
I grew up in Montreal and have spent most of my life living in the Vancouver, B.C. area where I was a businessman for many years. I am now retired and living on Vancouver Island with Linda Spenard and our golden retriever Shelby. R.I.P. Cooper. I have 2 kids, twins, Dean and Leah who are 29. I can be reached at my e-mail address colinatcove@shaw.ca Pictures of some of our travels can be found on Picasa. http://picasaweb.google.com/colinincanada (hasn't been updated for some time). A special thanks to my older brother David for letting me use his old photos. Thanks also to Linda Spenard for her photos and support.
