Sorry to hear of the loss of this piece of history. Listening to As It Happens tonight, and the interview with former owner August Rivalin - heartbreaking.💔

Not only is it #ThrowBackThursday, it’s also #BarbershopQuartetDay, & we just happen to have something for both! #TBT back to July last year, at our 90th Anniversary celebration, when we had Barbershop Harmony Society perform on our front steps! #LogCabinMuseum #SaanichPeninsula

We're pleased our next Talk & Tea is "#ButchartGardens - A World-Class Attraction”. Ppl come from all over the world to see this - learn from The Butchart Gardens Archivist, Daphne Gardner, how one woman's vision grew! Details: LogCabinMuseum.com #yyjevents #LogCabinMuseum

The #LogCabinMuseum recently received a donation of Dr Joyce Clearihue's medical bag, along with some instruments. A dermatologist, she followed in her mother’s footsteps, and both doctors were long-time members & supporters of our Society. A #ThrowBackThursday donation! #tbt

On this #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay, we reflect on what that means locally. It isn’t just a day to us. At the #LogCabinMuseum, we value & honour our collective past, incl a long relationship with W̱SÁNEĆ neighbours; especially generational friendship with the Tsawout peoples.

These youngsters were running towards the long weekend for Mayday back in 1931. 🏃‍♀️🏃🏃‍♂️ Those of us who have the weekend off, were running towards this #CanadaDay long weekend too! 😁 #LogCabinMuseum #SaanichPeninsulaHistory
