| I enjoyed this very much. Especially since I live in Ontario and recognize some of the places you mention.
The carvings are lovely..

| Checked out the site more carefully..I enjoy each and every time I do my shopping passing this lovely structure..was once donated to Tay Township and given to the seniors for their group use..however, because of the participating numbers keeping up with heat/hydro and renovations was a little overwhelming to the group and they gave it back to the Municipality...it was sold and now I believe just purchased by a "Real Estate" agent for use as a sales office..have seen some renovations done last fall in keeping with it's history...
Will ask around town to see if I can get further information on your Uncle and his carvings!!
Again, wonderful article and loved the photo's of his carvings.. |
