Eight years ago on the Pasty Cam: 4/29/98^{Printed on Recycled Internet}

It wasn't long after we published the picture of the stone boat in Kearsarge that we received a request for the one in Centennial Heights. You may recall back in 1998 there were very few pictures of the U.P. on the web, and the idea of a daily view from Northern Michigan was brand new, and began to receive quite a few requests.

As we approached the third month of the Pasty Cam (8 years ago), it was a time of rapid growth in the number of visitors to the website. This was due mainly to the article published first by the Detroit Free Press concerning the Pasty project, which was picked up by dozens of newspapers around the country. This triggered requests for more information from several radio stations. Eventually Midwest Living and Lake Superior Magazine featured this web project preserving the heritage of the Copper Country, born at a Home for the Aged in Calumet.

more tomorrow

Good morning everybody! Well, it's been raining here for hours and hours. Everything is extremely green but I'm SO tired of rain. A little sunshine in between the rain would be great! No planting this weekend. So much for that thought. I guess I'll go shopping and decide what I am going to plant. Have a wonderful weekend.

Oh yeah, Margo. Go Wings AND Go Pistons. And how 'bout those Tigers this year. Living in MN it was fun to watch them kick the Twins' butts! And it was a shutout no less. YEAH!!!! Their pitching has definitely gotten better this year. And the best part is they're all pretty young. Hopefully they'll stick around for a while. But once again, Go Wings and Pistons!!!!

afternoon Deb, and all :)
I remember seeing that boat many many years ago. I need to make another visit to the CC this summer.

Found this in my inbox this morning, from Troy and Cathy Westcott, so I thought I'd pass it on:

Hi Dave, How's everything going? I have to e-mail you and see what's up in your life. You haven't been on in a while. How 'bout those Tigers again today? People out this way aren't liking me about now. I think they should put the 10 run rule into effect. lol
