My Dad attended a summer camp — Camp Ironwood — in Harrison, Maine, which apparently took  a driving trip to Gaspé, Quebec

    I went on that trip with Matt Warner in 1951 in fact I think that is my profile in the second picture. I don’t remember your dad but at my age I’m not supposed to remember a lot! I wold love to hear from you.
