John Mc's Post of Saturday

I just read todays blog and saw John's contribution.

Of particular interest was the referral to his Family's Findlay Wood Burning Furnace.

When we were in our early teens a group from the United Church Called " Christian Teeners" went on a weekend visit to Carleton Place Ontario.... If I remember correctly I think John's wife Diane was on that trip....

The Carleton Place Group that hosted us later returned the visit to the Park.

One of the " Kids" from Carleton Place was a Findlay ( George?? Dave?? ) and was a member of the Stove Making Family as Findlay Furnaces were manufactured in Carleton Place and shipped across the country.

In my later life I bought a fireplace insert for my Fireplace in Saskatoon that was a Findlay and was also made in Carleton Place.

I still use it in my back yard as a outdoor fireplace in the summer.

Ironically Carleton Place, the birth place of his old furnace, is within spitting distance of where John currently resides.

Small World.
