@logcabinmuseum.bsky.socialOctober 9th was #WorldPostDay- international recognition of the #UniversalPostalUnion.
In 1874 in Switzerland, #UPU started the global communications revolution, introducing the ability to write letters to others worldwide, & established rules for international #mail exchange.

@logcabinmuseum.bsky.socialOh #CookieMonster, we completely agree that the photo of you & your new bestie, Harrison Ford, belongs in a #museum.
In fact, we thought you had such a great idea, we put it in a frame and put it in our #LogCabinMuseum, in the permanent Children’s display! Hope you enjoy the love. 💙🍪

@logcabinmuseum.bsky.socialThe last day of the #SaanichFair, with a couple of hours left. Come visit!
It's also #LabourDay in #Canada. A holiday since 1894, the movement started in the 1870s, eventually leading to the enactment of the #TradeUnionsAct, confirming the legality of unions in our country!
@logcabinmuseum.bsky.socialWe feel seen with this year’s #SaanichFair theme of #SmallButMIGHTY - because the #LogCabinMuseum is certainly that!
If you’re coming out to the #SaanichFair today, you’ll find us in the Gallery Building, in the midst of all the action!
