About this listen

Haliburton County recently hosted a fur trapping workshop and it got Kate thinking about historical fur trapping when it was more significant in the community. Plus, Paul went down a rabbit hole thinking about all the kitschy "world's biggest" road side attractions that were part of road trips when people starting driving the roads on family vacations. For example there's the world's biggest lobster, the Big Apple, and many more. And, of course, the refrain from the back seat - are we there yet?

Kate Butler is the Director of the Haliburton Highlands Museum. Paul Vorvis is the host of the Your Haliburton Morning Show 7 - 9 a.m. Fridays on Canoe FM 100.9 and streaming on your devices. Haliburton County is in cottage country about 2 1/2 hours north of Toronto. You can contact us at timewarp@canoefm.com
