Logging from 1967
We're posting another piece of archival tape from the early years of Land & Sea. This segment is from way back in 1967.
Henry Taylor and his son Bill were hard at work, cutting logs near Cupids. It was during a time when many other logging operations had closed down — but the Taylors were able to hang on.
Host Dave Quinton had a chat with them in the snowy woods. They were just in the middle of hauling heavy trees out by sleighs and two horses, Lady and Mack.
