Tuesday Treasures

  Tom hosts Tuesday's Treasures.

June 2026 - Toronto ON

Some more photos from our visit to the Old Post Office Museum last week.

So it seems we have a Toronto Letter Writers' Society. Top right outlines the dates and times of meetings.

Their website. I love they have a "Go Analog This Year" section.

The Art of Letter Writing

Temporary Exhibit

Love is in the Mail

Opening: April 1, 2026

Closing: October 1, 2026

Designed and curated by the students of the University of Toronto's Master of Museum Studies Capstone Project, the exhibit aims to share the history of love through letters in 19th century Toronto. With detailed examples of historic love letters from Torontonian residents, the exhibit will explain the social customs of the time, courting regulations, and how even with the passage of time, we still long to transmit emotion through communication.

My Dad worked out west when we first came to Canada, and he would write love letters to my Mom, but he always included kisses for me and my sister!!

Sepia Saturday Aug 16

I'm posting at Sepia Saturday today.

Today's theme is:

241 : Writing and Letters

August 16 was my Dad's birthday.

 He spent time working in Manitoba, I had posted about this here.

While he was there he was very homesick and missed my Mom, my sister and me. He wrote great letters to my mother which she kept. Unfortunately none of her responses have survived. 

This is very appropriate based on the sign in the prompt above: REMEMBER TO WRITE THAT LETTER HOME!
