O'Brien's Farm, 1997






O'Brien's Farm, 1997

In June 1997, I visited Aly O'Brien at his farmhouse on Oxen Pond Road in St. John's.  He was very welcoming and showed me around and pointed out his favourite flowers and plants.  He was elderly and said he couldn't work like he used to.  I took a couple of photos of his house and he posed for a couple of pictures.

Mr. O'Brien left the 150-year-old farm to the city when he passed away and it is in the process of being restored.  

I am sorry I didn't shoot more photos at the time.
