TLTV Ep 84 - Kincardine (Part 2)

We're back at Boiler Beach near Kincardine, and in this episode we'll visit the remains of the famous boiler from which the beach takes its name. The boiler's remains are all that is left from the ship "The Erie Belle" which exploded and sank on these shores in November 1883. Worn and rusted now, the boiler seems to get smaller every year to to the constant erosion of the waves. We'll take a close-up look at the remains of the boiler, and we'll see some of the beautiful stretches of sandy beach that is on either side of it. Enjoy!

TLTV Ep 83 - Kincardine (Part 1)

Here we are in the middle of the long dark days of winter, so maybe it would be a good idea to look at a series that was filmed in Kincardine Ontario last summer. Let's head to the beach on the shores of Lake Huron in this first of a quick series of episodes. Kincardine is a town of 12,000 residents that is located about halfway up the eastern shore of Lake Huron, around a 3 hour drive from The GTA. We'll start by visiting Boiler Beach during a warm summer afternoon. Boats and clouds will roll by all to the sound of the rolling waves. This is a beautiful, tranquil spot, and we'll see more of it in coming episodes of TLTV.
