As we all age(especially us boomers) we ask ourselves. "Will anyone even remember me when I am gone?" Now I must say that anyone who knows me that you talk to would say I am unforgettable. Well, I am just thrilled that this organization has come to fruition and is now a reality. Portland and The Big Rideau and its residents will now be remembered ! This is a wonderful thing. Portland has sometimes always been the little village that couldn't. Now I believe anything is possible. Portland's Heritage and Ancestry is very valuable . Without a past , there is no future. I believe Portland has always had so much potential, but for some reason this potential has never been utilized to its fullest. I personally wish to thank everyone who has made this possible.

I think that is really nice to have it made as part of Portlands heritage. I was wondering if there was any thought in restoring the house back to it's original form (when the Polks owned it) before Mr.Boles done all the renovations. I'm just remembering how it looked and I think it would have been nice if it could have been saved as the Polk homestead and declared a museam or something.
