The sweet smell of success
After a full day of trying, Babs and I were finally able to get her email on my server. Actually, on Miss Sadie’s server–mine remains recalcitrant. We would have done better to have breakfast at Sonny’s and trade a glossy print of the photo, as in the Olden Daze–and don’t think we weren’t about to […]
Great Granny Goes to Afghanistan
July 8, 2010
(This story was first published in the July 1, 2010 edition of the Elk Rapids News.) People who live in Antrim County know about Betty Beeby’s art. They read Whistle Up the Bay at school, or their children bring home a copy of Mrs. Squid. They visit the author/illustrator’s studio in Eastport. They take pictures […]

[…]

Here’s Dennis telling Loraine Mottern all about it. He had arrived early and met […]
The towering mulch pile
May 27, 2010
I have been spending a lot of time in the 19th century, searching through CDs full of images of old newspapers, piling up books with post-its fluttering from their pages, wandering around in cemeteries. I seem to get what I need when I need it, even when I’m looking for something else. Thus I went looking for a […]
St. Photo and a question of exposure
May 12, 2010
One of the things I love best about living here is the way light plays across the landscape, caught in the woods, reflected by water, glimmering through waves. I almost never capture the image I want in a photo. I’d like to up my success rate to, say, one in 100. As regular readers know, […]
