The Douglas Trail was constructed in the fall of 1858. This was the first public works project on the mainland. It was initiated by Governor Douglas to ensure food and freight could be transported to the goldfields inland.
The Tea this week was packed as we had 50 people attend. We made over 125 dollars which was shocking to us. Thanks to those who attended and special thanks to Bob Gilmore for sharing tales about logging in the old days with us. Our last Tea for the year is next week, don't miss it!
