Arden Blackburn's Mail Route: the Early Days at Christie Lake
John A. Mckenty
Theirs was a bond born in nature. United by water, the early inhabitants at Christie Lake were drawn into a community that came to transcend politics, religion and sometimes even family. Over time they gathered to work, to play and to celebrate the beauty that was around them. Located approximately 15 kilometres southwest of Perth, Ontario, Christie Lake is the third largest lake in what is known as the Tay Watershed. Follow the community's mailman as he uses the North Shore Road to weave a thread that brings together this unlikely blend of permanent residents and summer vacationers.
