The Rhodes and Morewood families on the Tadoussac dunes.

The summer residents of Tadoussac began exploring the surrounding area when they were still young. The abandoned Baude mill was a favourite spot for picnics. Nearby is a high dune reaching down into the St. Lawrence. From one generation to the next, vacationers of all ages have enjoyed sliding down the sand as if it were a toboggan hill, sometimes even on skis or sleds!
In this photograph, Francis and Armitage Rhodes (sons of William and Anne Catherine) are on the right, with their children and members of the Morewood family.
