I was tagging along a Gazette reporter near Thetford Mines. For a full day, we where following Yves Auger, an “apples detective”. Auger travels extensively across the area to finds and documents apples, especially older or unknown varieties. The story was kind of cool, but then it turned VERY cool when he gets us to the Jeanne D’Arc Beaulieu’s field. She’s a pretty old woman, but still working her field and her garden. The place is like a time travel to the beginning of the colony with all those old building and everything. And she talks and talks, and she gesticulates with her hands full of arthritis. I could have stayed for hours!
