On the Mohawk Trail at the hair pin turn sometime around 1994. In the picture is Alex Cabral with David and Martin O'Brien.
My son (this little guy) was showing his cousin how to pose whenever I'm taking photos of them....he says, "Just look into the camera like this....and don't smile". He seemed to be playing up that mohawk. This was taken on the dock of a bay in Pensacola, Florida.
His natural look with his natural mohawk. I didn't do anything to it for the photo. That's Teddy through and through.
Lake started High School today! He had this mohawk for approx. 2 weeks. I loved it. He could not handle the maintenance despite the Aqua Net I got him; and shaved it off.
Driving logs on the Mohawk River near mouth of Mill Creek, 1899
In Louis Polley's book he labels them as L-R: "Whistling Rufus Mathers, Charley Adams with peavey, Ed Hadley, Sherman Adams driving team and Wash Adams with maul over shoulder".
Before Booth-Kelly and the Southern Pacific railroad, floating logs out on the rivers was the primary way to transport logs to the mills. Drives normally ran from 3 to 10 million board feet per drive.
Before 1888, the logs were usually piled in the river all year and then floated out as the winter rains raised the water to a level that the logs would float. They had booms across the Mohawk and McKenzie at key checkpoints and at the mills. In 1886 and 1887 the river never got high enough to float the logs, so they began building splash dams. So far we have identified over a dozen dams on the Mohawk system and there may have been over 20 through the years.
Given the water level and the way the logs are scattered this appears to be in the splash dam era. After each 'flush' the crew would need to use horse teams and peaveys to get all the logs back into the main portion of the stream before the next flush.
Louis Polley notes in his book that his copy of this picture was labeled by Washington Adams as being taken on the Mohawk near the mouth of Mill creek in 1899. and alludes that this drive may be from the Adams place to the Columbus Cole mill (which was located where the Marcola Christian Church is today).
This was the year (May 1899) when the first splash dam was built on the Mohawk (funded by Columbus Cole for a Mr. Stryker) just upstream from the current town of Mabel.
In the early 1890s Columbus Cole's mill cut railroad ties (as well as several other mills in the valley) for the Springfield/Woodburn railroad line that was being built at that time. Later his mill cut all the lumber to build the original mill, town and camps in Wendling.
A dam along the Mohawk river and Erie Canal at Herkimer, NY. The dam separates the canal from the river. There is no lock here, just a control gate on the canal.
My close friend Trever cut my hair into a mohawk to celebrate our attendance of the Coachella Music Festival.
He posed the question concerning a mohawk hair cut only a few weeks ago and his mother and I laughed it off with a simply stated, "No."
But you don't know the persistence of Caden, our 5-year old, third shift, breakdancing ninja.
Um, long story there. Nevermind that.
So, he persisted. And persisted.
We hemmed. We hawed.
We relented.
And here he is in all of his mohawky glory. Yes, he does look a tad like David Beckham, doesn't he?
The boy named man. I can't wait 'til the folks at church see it on Sunday.
