Yes, Andrew is saved, they have made an interpretive centre there.<br /><br />Frank, I honestly don't think I know of any water powered feed mills here. Now I will have to do some research. I would think that's mostly due to the fact we are a much younger province as well as the flatness out here. <br /><br />I don't mind being called Leah, she is an exceptional photographer, so thank you :) and at least it is all in the family!Rebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05318594769530526005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730746285012325853.post-19698267586726991872009-09-28T00:17:42.506-06:002009-09-28T00:17:42.506-06:00Ack, sorry Reb - I said "Leah."

I don't know about out west, but they're disappearing here. Of the half-dozen I remember fishing at as a boy with my Dad, only one remains. <br /><br />And truth to tell, the fishing there is no hang anymore. I continue to visit it at least once or twice a year, though - I guess out of habit. And to jog my memory about decades past.<br /><br />Which is what you've just done. <br /><br />Thanks, Leah. I think. ;)Frank Baronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07766219281485749395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730746285012325853.post-91204106682905421422009-09-27T07:35:10.386-06:002009-09-27T07:35:10.386-06:00I love the dark, moody quality of your shots
