180 - Mary Snyder (Long-Term-Care, the Village of Riverside Glen)

For this episode I interview Mary Snyder, a resident in Long-Term-Care at The Village of Riverside Glen . Mary and I have an absolute blast bonding over our shared love of Guelph history, and being "borderline hippies". Mary and her husband's families go back many many generations in Guelph, all the way back to the Tree-cutter who cut down that very first tree for John Galt. We talk about our city's history new and old, reflecting on the tendencies of history books to track the wealthy and the businessmen, and over-look the tree-cutters and farmers and factory workers. We reflect on the changes of Guelph, and some of the silver-linings that come with changes. And we make each other laugh a lot too. This was a delightful conversation and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
