Highlights from the Thunder Bay Museum
I got what I got. My camera kept cutting off cause I forgot to charge the battery beforehand.
One of the songs used is 'Twas in the Moon of Wintertime which is a classic Huron Christmas Carol.
The rest is just my own stuff thrown in to spice things up a little.

Jerry’s walking down Donald Street East in Thunder Bay, searching for another gear on Captain Nemo’s mission. He jumps back in time at Thunder Bay Museum, where he relives the history of TBay, from the merging of the twin cities of Fort William and Port Arthur. Jerry learns about the fur trade, silver mines, and the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway, all of which had a role to play in creating “Canada’s gateway to the west”. After stumbling through a 100-year old doctor’s office (Dr. Smellie!) and an old-fashioned movie theatre, Jerry finds his gear inside the skeleton of a giant Albertosaurus.

The five public murals provided by City grants have been completed and were formally unveiled today for public viewing. Additionally, five storyboards featuring a unique story and images of a particular Thunder Bay historic building or event were also unveiled today in highly visible outdoor locations. The five murals and storyboards bring together public art, history and community pride in Downtown Fort William.
The location and themes of these murals are as follows:
•Shelter House, 400 George St (at Simpson St) on the diversity mutual respect of our multi-cultural community,
•Métis Nation of Ontario, 226 May St. S, role of Métis peoples in the Fur Trade era,
•Victorias Cupboard, 119 May St. N, Fort William vignettes circa 1880s - 1910s,
•Veggie Garden Project, 443 Simpson St, Simpson St. streetscapes circa 1870s 1910s, and
•Kleewyck Stained Glass, 601 Simpson St, geometric shapes with historical family figures.
The historic storyboards pilot project includes five themes:
•the Streetcar Era (located on the corner of Brodie Street and Victoria Avenue, outside the east entrance to Victoriaville Centre),
•Historic Victoria Avenue Street Scenes (located on the corner of Victoria Avenue & Simpson Street),
•the Kam Rivers Industrial Past (inside Kam River Park),
•the 10-Mile Road Race (in front of the Northwestern Ontario Sports Hall of Fame), and
•the changing face of City Hall (temporarily located in front of the Sports Hall of Fame while City Hall renovations are being completed).
The purpose of these storyboards, designed by Tory Tronrud, Director - Thunder Bay Historical Museum, is to raise interest and awareness of Thunder Bays local history. Both the murals and the storyboards have incredible visual appeal, said Tronrud. They combine the creativity of this community with our unique culture and identity, resulting in an attraction that everyone can enjoy.
Each of the five storyboards are within easy walking distance of each other, and when combined with the murals and the downtowns stock of historic buildings, offer an interesting and colourful downtown walking tour.
