Our House on the Gaspe Peninsula

Just this month my partner and I purchased the house pictured below in Le Bic, on the Gaspe Peninsula, about 3 hours drive east of Quebec City. The house was a small (one classroom) school in the 1900s, renovated in 2002 as a family home. The forested ridge in the background is part of Le Bic National Park which has a wonderful mix of boreal forest and shoreline along the Saint Lawrence River, where harbor seals seals can often be seen basking on the rocks. Over the next couple of months, I will be blogging about our experiences in this beautiful part of Canada where French is spoken. We plan to divide our time between Le Bic, in the Quebec Province in the far northern Appalachian Mountains, and Asheville, North Carolina, in the southern Appalachians.
