John Smallwood graced the pages of the Pasty Cam on this day in 1998. In December of 2002 we honored John among those remembered at the end of the month memorial. Where did the years go?
Appropriate to revisit this scene inside the lobby at Still Waters, as we are preparing for the Benefit Concert for Still Waters tomorrow night at the Calumet Theatre. This Home for the Aged - where John and so many others have received extra care in their later years - has been in need of support and assistance from the community throughout its 24 year history. The Copper Country United Way and this web project have provided some of that support, but it's friends like you who have really made the difference, and allowed Still Waters to keep on keeping on.
Jeff Valley is keeping on course as he circles the Keweenaw this week on his bike, spreading the word and hoping to arrive at the Calumet Theatre in time for the concert Saturday at 7pm. I ran into Jeff yesterday afternoon up in the woods, on his way to High Rock Bay beyond Copper Harbor. I understand he took a wrong turn at Breakfast Lake, and almost peddled all the way back to Bete Gris. Fortunately he turned around and made it to Mariner North, where he spent the night. Looks like a great day again for a long ride :o)
more tomorrow
