With intermittent rain showers today, we had many people from the Rail
Trail trying to keep dry including one young couple from Russia.

Our volunteers made progress on the display case for our ice harvesting
items. Before Mechanical refrigeration, homes and businesses depended
on natural ice to keep food cool. In the winter there was a big
business in cutting ice blocks from almost every pond and lake. The
Bordens milk plat adjacent to the Depot had an insulated ice house that
held 900 tons of ice which would last through the summer months. The
ice blocks came from a pond in Billings and were hauled to Hopewell
Junction by the ND&C railroad.
The Depot will be open tomorrow (Sunday). Stop around and chat for a
while.
