Some days you get the bear, some days . . .
I ran into Jim Gainey at the Eastport Market. Would I like to see who came to visit his side yard on East Torch Lake Drive? I suspected I would. He whipped out his cellphone and showed me The Bear Who Came to Dinner. Naturally I obtained a copy for you. The Bear was employed […]
Irises for Bloomsday
June 16, 2009
Out and about on a warmish sunny day it was hard to miss the bright irises blooming all around the township. They’re popular in Eastport gardens and have been for a long time—Loraine Mottern included them in her Wilkinson Homestead garden restoration, and they look very cheery along the fence. The landscaping around the Torch […]
Monet meets Babs
June 15, 2009
This just in from Babs Young: Move over Monet, well not quite, but they are water lilies and I rather like the colors. I don’t think Monet need worry. Babs, I think Monet would invite you to visit his garden in Giverny and show you the light on his lily pond. He’d tell you to go […]

Fire scene the next morning
June 13, 2009
Today was a pretty good day to wander around so we took advantage. First we went to the scene of last night’s fire. Here’s what the burned semi looked like on a lovely summer morning. Who would’ve thought it could make so much thick black smoke? It seems the fire was centered on the cab […]
