A post-1950 aerial photograph.  We are finding the remains of many of these buildings as we clear the north acreage. An aerial photo from 1997. Some of the wood we pulled out was so rotten it crumbled in our hands.  Others split easily.  None of it was salvageable.
240304Carb.jpg (89339 bytes) bins.jpg (160692 bytes) farmequipment.jpg (147840 bytes)
An oil carburetor we pulled from the bushes in the north acreage, near the site of some old buildings. One year, we found these wood-and-fibreglass bins.  There are around 200 of them, and we have no idea what they were used for.  Several uses, including construction and agriculture had been suggested. Our antique farm equipment collection has already begun.  Work crews hired by Delta uncovered this piece, which will be featured in our collection of antique farm equipment on Canada Day.  This particular piece is a John Deere; the serial and model numbers are visible.
