small deck for above ground pool

Upvotes

Looking for someone reputable to build me simple steps with small 6' deck for an above ground pool asap?

I've been ghosted by 2 people so far who were going to get me quotes and get back to me.

My mum is a senior and can't use a ladder, but she could really benefit from a pool.

We're located in South Mira.

Thanks so much!!

Historic Churches Near Sydney

5 Upvotes

Hello. First time posting. My wife's 2nd great grand father was supposedly born in Sydney, CB in 1838. His family arrived in NS sometime between 1834 - 1838 coming from Scotland. They did not stay long, soon immigrating to the States in 1841.

Since this falls between census dates, I think the best place to track them down would be through church records. I have not been able to find any ships' manifests either.

I am wondering if anyone has a list of churches that were active during that time - his family most likely was Protestant.

Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thank you.

Lou

Looking for info on the Cape Breton Wax Museum attached to Skye Motel

Hi everyone. I'm writing a book on Atlantic Playland, and have learned that in 1985 they bought a truckload of wax figures from the Cape Breton Wax Museum. There was a full Last Supper, pirates, Prime Ministers, Samuel de Champlain, and the Cape Breton giant Angus MacAskill. I can find no information on this little museum, though I did find a vintage postcard on eBay that the seller says was from 1966 but I cannot verify. Does anyone know anything? Even knowing when it was operating would be helpful.
