I have never had a person pronounce that last name correctly! except my grandfather, he is pure sicilian. he sweats olive oil and bleeds ragu. he's the real deal!
I agree.......Quebec City is nicer! I stayed at the Chateau Frontenac in Old Quebec on my honeymoon. Do you know where that is? Felt like being in Europe!

So if you grew up with a French Canadian mother and a Sicilian Father.....it must have been lively at your house!!
Both cultures have a real "love" of life!
When you said roll the "r"........I totally got the pronounciation of your name.....and I'm sure I said it just like your grandfather! haha

The River Reserve does have some lots that do back onto the Saluda River. They also have walking trails and some lots that are on a small lake. It is about 10 minutes to downtown Greenville and less than 10 to the Greenville Memorial Hospital (which is why there are a lot of doctors that live in the subdivision!)
