Thanks Julie! I was trying to capture the character the actor was trying to portray which was that of a tough businessman/manager of a 1798 fur trading post in Northern Minnesota and I'm glad it came through to you. The actor stayed in character all the while we were in his "office" and he came across as a very stern, unsmiling, individual who was there to buy furs from the trappers and "voyageurs" at the best price possible. We had an interesting and informative tour and learned a lot about what life was like at a fur trading post such as this. :-) CJ
