Artism at Shooks Farm
You may recall that students over in Ellsworth designed a program they dubbed the Artism of Betty Beeby. I like it. Artism sounds like something a person could get up to in the course of ordinary life, sitting right next to a person who’s making Art. Whenever artists get up to something in Antrim County […]
Up, Daddy, Up!
June 21, 2009
It’s been a long, long time since a tiny toddler asked Daddy to lift her up, but her grown-up self still remembers how nice it was to be carried along, the deep Daddy voice making nice brumming sounds, the world flowing by. Happy Fathers Day to DOD and to all the other Dads and Step-dads […]
Antrim weeds ‘n’ vines
June 20, 2009
Familiar wildflowers brighten the sandy roadsides of Antrim County, and the Dawsons’ vineyard is looking lush. Must be the beginning of summer. Not a moment too soon, either. Sandy soil and early summer flowers remind me of walking across the meadow with my grandmother, the timothy grass tickling my knees, startled by a grasshopper’s leap. […]

Most of us brought our trucks and cars and tractors to the Eastport Garage back when Bud and their son Mike worked miracles on old engines. Rosa did the […]
Yellow roses for Blaise
June 20, 2009
Wendi and Terry Wooten’s daughter Blaise is getting married this summer, to a very nice man named George, or Matt, depending on when you got to know him. This enterprise entails considerable planning, celebratory parties involving quantities of treats, and strict adherence to Tradition. There must be Bridal Showers and Bridal Shower Games—with prizes. If […]
Unexpected mercies
June 19, 2009
I’d resigned myself to finding no morels this year when POP! – there they were this morning, great big ones. I cannot account for them, but I’m glad for them and have them soaking in salted water. There were new wildflowers, too, including the first tiny blooms on the wild geranium. There’s a lot of […]
