an upper peninsula journal: June 2008

http://www.upperpeninsulajournal.com/2008_06_01_archive.html

An upper peninsula journal. June 19, 2008. According to an old Irving Berlin tune, There may be trouble ahead / But while there's moonlight and music / And love and romance / Let's face the music and dance. With thanks to "saraismyname.". June 11, 2008. One might think life precarious enough without getting in a canoe with two old dogs, and one might be right. Then again, what's life without a little precariousness? It was two otters who caused consternation one day as I paddled to the lake with the dogs.

An upper peninsula journal. July 1, 2008. Where the honey flows. This article originally appeared in the July 2008 issue of Marquette Monthly. The first two photos are by Darlene Wrona. Honey is nothing less than concentrated nectar; … the essence of its surroundings … flowing gold into the pot through the transforming power of the bee. From “Sweetness and Light: The Mysterious History of the Honeybee,” by Hattie Ellis. 8221; and crawl back into the hive, away from the beekeeper. Yet beekeepers get stung.

an upper peninsula journal: March 2008

http://www.upperpeninsulajournal.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

An upper peninsula journal. March 27, 2008. Home is where the art is. It's the local government he has trouble with, but without that trouble, which forced him to move his sculptures from his home, the park probably wouldn't be here in the first place. And what he has created in Lakenenland is an extensive welcome mat to his world, where scraps of vision weld with scraps of steel. Tom calls it "junkyard art." To many, it's treasure. You didn't start the fire for us? I didn't know you were coming," I said.

http://www.upperpeninsulajournal.com/2008/10/many-tales-of-pirate-dan-seavey.html

An upper peninsula journal. October 23, 2008. The Many Tales of Pirate Dan Seavey. This article originally appeared in the October 2008 issue of the Marquette Monthly. But where, exactly, did the Nellie Johnson disappear from? Was it Montague, Michigan, as reported by a June 30, 1908, New York Times article? Or Grand Haven, Michigan, as more recent accounts state. And how did Seavey come to be in control of the ship? Seavey eventually did attempt to escape the Tuscarora in the Wanderer, but how, exactly,...

an upper peninsula journal: July 2008

http://www.upperpeninsulajournal.com/2008_07_01_archive.html

An upper peninsula journal. July 28, 2008. The board had stayed fairly open, not getting jammed up in one corner or another as so often happens, and this was the third quadrant we had moved into; the third Triple Word Score we were nonchalantly chasing. GOON brought us that much closer; my play of AIRS, making GOON GOONS, brought us just one tantalizing space away. So many possibilities . A word: AI. As in "ai yi yi." It was my turn. I laid down ZIP. Silence. Then, "Ai? That's not a word! With QUIP my op...

http://www.upperpeninsulajournal.com/2008_09_01_archive.html

An upper peninsula journal. September 15, 2008. But over the weekend the river gulped up fresh lake water, soaked up rain, and kept its mouth shut. This morning all that water buried the river's small grassy island and flooded the cranberry bog. In the air was a strong smell of fish. September 1, 2008. Where the buffalo roam. This article originally appeared in the September 2008 issue of Marquette Monthly. Do you see hundreds of buffalo idly grazing on a grassy expanse? How about a handful of about 18 b...

an upper peninsula journal: October 2008

http://www.upperpeninsulajournal.com/2008_10_01_archive.html

An upper peninsula journal. October 26, 2008. Dawn, one morning. Dawn, a different morning. On the way home I stop along the lake to gaze at the stars. The Big Dipper is low, dipping toward the water. The Milky Way arches overhead. Back where I had come from, back in town, coppery orange lights glow and shimmer, kind of twinkling. I briefly wonder why non-twinkling lights should look is if they are twinkling. Is it the distance? No matter. I'd rather be here, wondering, than anywhere else, knowing. 8220;...
