About This Piece
In My Dreams is a loose interpretation of a street in Niagara on the Lake. My family came from that area. They were United Empire Loyalists. Many of them fought with Butler in 1787 and built the first house on the Niagara Parkway. I get a warm feeling looking at the old homes in Niagara – it feels like home to me.
