Title: Anyone live in/near Midland ON?
Post by: Anonymous on March 18, 2010, 04:43:11 PM
Hey all, anyone live in or near Midland Ontario?

I'm doing a school project on early French presence in Western New York, & I'm gonna make the historical figure Etienne Brule (Champlain's interpreter/emissary) part of my project.

Apparently in Midland, there's a mural of him, and I'd love a decent quality picture of it to use in a PowerPoint presentation.

If anyone in the area would be willing to take a nice picture of it for me, I'd be hugely grateful!

A small pic of the mural is #4 here: http://www.directionontario.ca/champlai ... uronia.cfm (http://www.directionontario.ca/champlain/scavengerHuronia.cfm)

Does that help.

Mind you, I've also seen paintings of him with a mustache

That's a picture I'm already using of him.  I was hoping to have a couple more for different PPT slides.  Thanks though.

As its a project i doubt you'll need this anymore, but if you can still use the pic of the mural in midland, lmk and i'll go find it and take a pic.

It would be great if you could.  But if it's out of the way don't worry about it.  My PPT is due at the end of next week.

Yes.

Obviously, my semester's over & I'm all graduated.  So again, no pressure.  If you can't, no big deal.  But it'd be neat to have a good pic of that one.
