    48th Highlanders museum

    Hello all I decided this morning to go and see the 48th Highlanders museum in downtown Toronto, and of course brought my camera along, so if join me if you will on a wee tour of the 48th Highlanders museum:

    The museum is housed in St. Andrew's Church

    Here is my guide for the tour of the museum his name is Ron Denim and he is standing beside "George" the sign George has some friends downstairs I will introduce you to them later.

    Ron is a wonderful chap full of all sorts of information that he is just begging to impart to those who would listen. I am sure Todd would love to discuss the history of the 48th with this gentleman:
