great podcast on on Gilmour lumber … I got the link from Marmora historical foundation .. I am working on a documentary using When Giants Fall ..about David Gilmour and his influence on Trenton Ontario… my film work is mostly historic about the Quinte Area.. I also live in Trenton .. I especially like the analogy of David being the Mr Potter of Bedford falls ..this has always been my feeling as well.. I do have several other photos of this time if you need ..another strange coincidence is my wife is from Lennoxville and went to champlain … but she does not remember the incident involving Theresa … she was 13 at the time … looking forward to part 2 and 3
covering another of my favorite stories .. Tom Thompson … It would be cool if you could give me a heads up when it comes out
