We toured the St. Lawrence seaway with my sister and bil before our kids were born and visited every little and big museum along the seaway all the way to Ottawa. I recall photos of the log chutes in one of the smaller museums, but have not seen the one in Haliburton. Thanks for sharing! Happy Thanksgiving to your family and your Canadian readers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11533933625825629350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575237890797665624.post-52871326016497632872011-10-08T11:55:36.044-04:002011-10-08T11:55:36.044-04:00That is so interesting!

The original site of our family mill was at the bottom of a river as the river was used as a means to transport the logs to the mill. So, naturally, I find forestry & sawmill history fascinating! It was a way of life for generations of men. Really interesting post Grace! Angie xoAngie@Echoes of Laughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16020199846432437909noreply@blogger.com
