One of our local farmers thought it may have came from a steam boat that ran up and down our river!http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1216/866627679_3c8f6afe55_m.jpg

Posted - Jul 21 2007 : 10:29:49 PMWhat great information~Thank You!!! That book sounds vaquely familiar...I wonder if I picked it up and thumbed through it one time at Scott's..The sign is in our home, one of my niece's has 'dibs' on it! Apparently she has stuck a piece of masking tape with her name on it somewhere on the back:) She is going out with a Conway farm boy so perhaps it will always stay in the valley:) I love looking at your pictures of this area - thanks so much for sharing them!~Dona

Posted - Jul 21 2007 : 8:57:04 PMI love it. what a neat sign and i bet it was on one of the boats that travelled from Conway to Mount Vernon or upriver from Mount Vernon to Sedro Woolley. WOW!! Is it in your shop or at your home? MB PS I have a book called Skagit Settlers 1890-1920 and there are two pictures of the Skagit Queen. She was a sternwheeler that travelled from the Sound up river to Mount Vernon and Avon and back. And also out to Rosario. How neat you have have the name plate and I have a picture and some history.
