This week, Kate brings the story of loggers and the spring log drive down Haliburton County's rivers and lakes. Who do you call when you het a log jam? Jam crackers! Plus, Paul has the story of Louis Cyr, a farm boy born from the late 1800's Quebec who earned the title of the 'Strongest Man on Earth' through prodigious feats of strength like using his back to lift a platform with 18 men standing on top.

This week, Kate riffs on Canadian Thanksgiving and segues into stories of 2 early pioneer families in Haliburton County. Plus Paul has a brief overview of Scotland's Highland Clearances in the early 1800's, the migration of Scots to Canada - in particular Reverend Norman McLeod and his congregation - and the lasting impact of Scots on Canadian culture that still exists today.

This week, Kate has Part 2 of the story of Thomas Mason, an early pioneer in Haliburton County. Plus, Paul has the history behind how the world has had different systems of measurement and how Canada evolved to having a hybrid system of measurement - partly Imperial and partly Metric. It's created a bit of a muddle and doesn't always make sense, but by and large it works. Except maybe in the case of the "Gimli Glider Incident".
