TLV Sunday morning
And now for something completely different–postcards from the D. We are visiting Rob the Firefighter and the Lady Alicia. We arrived last night a little the worse for wear, but were soon set to rights. I would show you pictures of the granddogs bouncing around with Miss Sadie and the Cowboy, but they are all […]

Storing up nuts against the Dreadful Dismals
November 14, 2010
We are heading into the part of the year that is not especially picturesque in Torch Lake Township. Generally speaking, late November and early December are really good times to look indoors for visual delight. Or rummage around in the memory banks for something pretty. Here, stored up like acorns, are some of my favorite images […]
