Happy 125th birthday to Eastport Baptist Church
Linda Gallagher asked me to do a story on the 125th Anniversary of Eastport Baptist Church for the Antrim Review, so off I trotted to interview Jerry Troyer, the youthful pastor. I found him in the gym behind the church painting the walls. (You know how it is when company’s coming.) He showed me around […]
Playtime
June 24, 2009
Summertime isn’t really playtime up here unless you’re just visiting, in which case it is the best playtime you’ll ever have probably.

Cuter kid, younger daddy. Another take on Fathers Day.
June 22, 2009
As I was walking through the neighborhood with Miss Sadie and the Cowboy I met Tommy and his dad, Ken, going for a little Fathers Day bike ride. The Disreputable Duo were ecstatic. They like Tommy a lot. Much petting and leash tangling ensued, but nobody fell over. I figure the day will be a […]
