Happy Thanksgiving Aunt Jimmie
Not everyone is blessed to have an aunt named Jimmie, and in fact only nine people in the universe have been blessed with my particular Aunt Jimmie. She knows how to have fun better than practically anybody I know, and she can do it on a shoestring. Between her house and mine, we’ve spent a […]

Happy Thanksgiving from Babs
November 24, 2008
Babs Young writes, Here we are once again on Essex Road and then there is that “lake effect” too. It’s not winter yet on the calendar, but it sure looks like it is. Happy Thanksgiving to all. Every week photographer Babs Young captures moments in northern Michigan, and every week she sends one to Torch […]

Puzzles
November 21, 2008
This morning I looked up to see deer looking in at me through the kitchen window. Great, I thought, I’ll take a picture. Of course by the time I found the camera they were up on the ridge, frozen in place like little kids who think you won’t see them if they keep absolutely still. […]

The Ides of November
November 18, 2008
In observance of St. Venison’s Day, hunters poured into the Eastport Market over the weekend. They started coming on Thursday, when they cleared out the stock of jerky snacks and peppermint schnapps. On Friday they came back and bought dinner from the deli. On Saturday night they came straggling in to blow smoke about the […]
