The Sou'Wester Gift & Restaurant Co. began in 1967 as a small five table tearoom at the side of a house at its present location. It has been expanded over the last five decades to a 180-seat restaurant offering traditional Maritime and seafood dishes, and a two-level gift shop with one of the Maritimes largest selections of giftware. Today, more than 50 years later, The Sou'Wester is still run by the family of its founder, Jack Campbell.

My name is Cathy Thorne. I write and draw cartoons about everyday people like myself, and our experiences with relationships, parenting, friendships, healthy living and the never-ending quest for inner peace.I created my first cartoon in 1999 during my graduating year at The Art Centre in Toronto.I practice yoga, drink green smoothies and try to live in the moment.i've also been known to eat a large bag of BBQ chips in one sitting while watching sitcoms.I live with my husband and school-aged daughter and son, who provide me with insights, challenges and laughter to inspire a lifetime's worth of cartoons.But if you really want to know about me, you'll find everything there is to know in MY CARTOONS.- See more at: http://everydaypeoplecartoons.com/cartoonist#sthash.OC9i5Xgj.dpuf
