He persuaded the city girl from Westmount to pack up her belongings and move into a geodesic dome in Nova Scotia

We met in 1971. I was in Toronto visiting a friend who was working at Central Don Stables. I wanted to go out and I said, ‘You must know some fellow who’s single, good looking and rich.’ She said, ‘Well there’s my boss …’For the record, I was not wealthy when we met. Or single. But she made an impression on me. She had great legs.After we met that first night I went home to Montreal and I happened to be talking to this woman who told me she was engaged to a man from Toronto who owned a stable.

He promised he’d build us a geodesic dome. And he did. But for a while there we were living in a chicken coop.Our building project was put on hold when Andrea decided we had better get married. Actually it was her sister Joy’s idea, who was visiting at the time. She asked us why we weren’t, and I guess we didn’t have a good answer.We didn’t have a phone or anything. I remember I called my mom collect from a payphone in a parking lot.
