We are bringing you an extra special podcast this week. Last month I sat around a table with Bruce Barrett, Erin Wall and Greg Finnegan. Laura Mann from the Dawson City Museum also joined us by telephone. We recorded a discussion ranging from what got all of us started in heritage to how the world's economic trouble might affect heritage and museums. This is part one of that discussion. Look for part two next week.

Marc Johnson is busy restoring one of the "Berrigan Cabins". Marc is also restoring a boat "The Yukon Rose" which will be used to ferry canoe trips down the Yukon River.
