I never heard of Mary Celeste until I read Snow's book; being in the midwest and I don't know anybody who is interested in the things I mentioned. The Titanic is fascinating, too, even moreso because it did have survivors and they know what happened to it.

Never in my lifetime did I imagine they would find and photograph the wreckage. I think they had to use robots to bring up some relics, not sure. It was fascinating about the dna test when they dug up several graves and found no remains but one child. IIRC the child's dna proved who she was not; they thought she was from one mom and a sibling I think.

Saskatchewan would be a neat place to grow up. Never been there, just Ontario on a short drive.

“Saskatchewan would be a neat place to grow up.”

Sure. If you love snowstorms, blizzards, 10 feet of snow average and winters which last 8 months. The best part is crossing into the US border, waving hi to the border guy by walking through 2 wheat fields.
