Logs being loaded from truck to ship.

  1. Can still smell the softwood in the river.
    the sound of logs in the de-barking drums,
    the smell of sulphur...

  2. You're welcome, the second picture was logs being loaded into a boat for transport to a Quebec mill, perhaps the one you refer to!

  3. That top picture reminds me of the "Beachcombers" TV series, which I watched as a teenager on Australian TV in the late 70's-early 80's.

  4. Wrong coast of course, but the idea is the same, boats as pickup truck of the sea... :-)
