Be there or be square
I know you feel sorry for yourself because you missed the picnic over at the Knowles House. Well, some of you missed it. Katy was there, and Loon Ranger Arleen Westhoven, and Linda Gallagher, the editor of the Antrim Review, and Mike Berst, as advertised, and numerous Dawsons and Bachmanns and leventy-umpteen other people whose […]
Spring Picnic at the Knowles House – tonight!
May 26, 2010
I know this is not much notice, but I think you should consider having dinner on the lawn at the Knowles House this evening. (That would be Wednesday, May 26, just in case you’re reading this on, say, Friday.) The event is a fund raiser for the Central Lake Area Historical Society. Gary Dawson is […]

Torch Lake Inn
April 9, 2010
The other day Tim Hosper gave me a tour of the old inn that dozes in the sun in Torch Lake village. If you live in the distribution area of the Elk Rapids News, you can read the story in this week’s edition. If you don’t, well, here you go. (Please note: this is not Tom […]
