Wonders never cease
I spent last Thursday at a Special Meeting of the Torch Lake Township Board. You’re probably already wishing I’d posted a flower, right? Bear with me.

I fell asleep reading Jerry Dennis’s Heart of the Great Lakes—it’s lively, but I’m not—and woke up befuddled and buzzing. Wait, wait . . . the buzzing was outside my head. The Cowboy was staring at the wall with a bemused expression. GACK! This fellow was on the wall. A good two inches long and […]

2009 Antrim County Fair Fairgrounds: Craven Park, Bellaire August 6-8 (plus the Cowboy Worship Service on Sunday morning) Last year I wrote about the Fair, and I see that people are hunting that post down now, looking for information. Time to do a new one. Here’s what I said in 2008 that is still true: […]

Alana Haley sent me an email. Next Wednesday at Pine Hill Nursery Master Gardener Ruth Chapin will help Perk up your Tired Container. My mind wandered to my containers, all of them completely neglected since last summer. My feet wandered out to the deck to inspect the one on the railing. Perhaps it was not […]
