When Ted Wadland sold the campsite he gave me this carving. Apparently two young guys wanted to camp there but had no money. They struck a deal with Ted. They’d carve a sign for Ted in exchange for a weeks stay. A goo deal! The sign is very well done.
Hi Bob, a friend found on ancestry ca , I think they are at their sandpiper property. Annie Fearman.
Not long ago our family was notified by our long time neighbour, Richard Ladouceur, about a discovery he had made during the deconstruction of a wall in the retirement home my great grandfather Robert Lea Smith built at 2870 Shingle Spit Rd. Wedged between two framing members he found an old metal stencil that would have likely been used to label produce leaving the island for sale elsewhere. Really exciting find.
