This 1st submission was by Julie Schmidt, resident of Port Coquitlam. Read below to find out more about her QUARAN-TALE! “Tomorrow, my oldest granddaughter becomes a teen. Ordinarily, the family would get together to celebrate. Instead, because of social distancing, I posted this poem on messenger for her and my other granddaughters
She sent me a selfie on her phone and I sent her a photo of her before her band concert. I asked if she minded if I posted the poem and photo. She asked if I could photoshop the fluffiness out of her hair, Jk lol! Are you kidding me? I had to check the urban dictionary for Jk but now I’m in the know. It’s hard to keep up with twelve year olds and tomorrow she’s a teen. What hope does a poor Nana have?” #quarantales #pocoheritage #pocoheritagemuseum #quarantinecommunity #connectingpeople #connectingcommunities #culturedoesntstop #bcmuseums #museumcanada #portcoquitlam
