This is Michigan. Think Cars. Also trucks, because, hey, this is northern Michigan.
In Michigan, we are more interested in cars than the average person in, say, Washington D.C. New cars, customized cars, restored cars, beloved clunkers . . . and don’t get me started on our trucks. We love our trucks. Do not mess with our trucks. So it is fitting that there should be a Collector […]
Daytrips in northern Michigan: Bier Gallery
June 8, 2009
Recently I had to make a trip to Charlevoix, which took me right past one of my favorite places: the Bier Gallery, the little red schoolhouse with a watch rabbit on the lawn. But what the heck was that on top of the wellhouse? Ray Bier explained. He wanted to get some of the smaller outdoor […]
Babs at Mackinac again on a bright and breezy day
June 1, 2009

I recommend you go look at them. Second, dmarks captured a Traverse City dog team with, er, training wheels. You really should go […]
Backstage in Elk Rapids
May 19, 2009
As Miss Sadie, the Cowboy and I had business in Elk Rapids several times in the last week, we’ve been watching the community fluff up in preparation for the Big Show. It’s very pleasant to wander around backstage while other people do all the work. The marina is humming as boats move from storage into […]
Daytrips: Jordan River Arts Council, East Jordan
May 4, 2009
When I went over to JRAC for the opening of its current show, I admired a quill box. Upon close inspection, I discovered that it was made by Babs Young. Is there no end to the woman’s creative capabilities? There was a lot to admire, and I’m sorry I didn’t get around to telling you […]
