    I understand the concept of what they are doing - I really do. That's a great wIay to remove the maximum amount of moisture from the fabric. What I don't get is why THEY are doing it! Creating some kind of hot pack or dressing for the "patient" in the bed?

Fort Macleod's Anonymous

  • citydrinker said:
    An excellent and evocative group of pictures. But unless you want to identify locations, why are they posted in this group without any explanation, or clues, except for those that have been identified in their titles?.
  • Galt Museum & Archives on The Commons said:
    Hmmm, a good question. The album description itself includes the explanation but is not easy to spot. Will include explanation with each photo. Stay tuned.
