The lovely garden and gazebo at Still Waters hosted "Garden of Art" eight years ago. With a little rain, that garden is just as beautiful today.

Also, the votes are in and counted and the winners of the 2006 Pasty Poetry contest have been announced.

Good Morning everyone beautiful day !

Good Morning!

I am just catching up after returning from the Copper Country's pristine beauty and weather, so I add a belated Happy Birthday to Renee (sur5er) and a wish to have been able to have some of the "Aura" bean soup to Marsha!

Morning!

belvedere

Somehow I think Lake Superior is going to be a popular keweenaw destination this weekend. ;-)

and I have to ref all 3 soccer games saturday afternoon! Do not get between me and the Lake after the last game ends saturday!

========================================

... Heat wave to move into west and central Upper Michigan
Thursday and persist into the weekend...

Over the past few days... heat has built up across the plains. A
low pressure system over Manitoba will move across northern
Ontario on Thursday... bringing the heat into west and central
Upper Michigan. High temperatures on Thursday are expected to
climb into the low 90s away from the Great Lakes shorelines.
Another low pressure system will move out of Manitoba into
northern Ontario on Saturday... bringing even warmer air to Upper
Michigan... with many locations away from Lake Michigan topping out
in the mid 90s Saturday afternoon. In addition to the hot weather
during the day... temperatures at night are also expected to be
very warm... with locations near Lake Superior and over the
Keweenaw peninsula only dropping into the 70s Friday night and
Saturday night. A cold front to bring relief from the heat is not
expected to move through Upper Michigan until Sunday or Monday.

Oh Yeah the heat is coming to us! Finally again been waiting for it!! Lake Superior here we come!!

Margare the only belvedere I remember was the TV show!! And that was a few years back.

Hullow Maija. You make it home safe?

Hi, I am a new member trying to find some info. Maybe some of the old timers may remember.

In Michigan in the 70's there was a TV show called George Piertott presents...often he had a guest first name of Stan, trying to find out the last name. The guest rode a bicycle across the county and often had humors clips of himself in Michigan.

Any help would be appreciated.

For those interested my son Rob's latest article from germany is posted:

http://www.mtu.edu/current/student_abroad/

George Pierots guest was named Stan Midgely who rode his bike all over the country, especially out West.

At info.detnews.com I found information about the George Pierrot show and the guy you are wondering about was Stan Midgley. Maybe you can Google Stan's name. For some reason, I can no longer post a link (blue) on here. Something must be "unclicked" on my computer.

On the hotter side, I CANNOT BELIEVE IT IS GOING TO BE 97 DEGREES WHEN I'M STIRRING AND SERVING BOILING BEAN SOUP OVER THE OPEN KETTLE AT THE AURA JAMBOREE SATURDAY!!! Please come and introduce yourself to me to brighten my day!

Here's a tidbit of news that many of you might be interested in. It's about the Dan Urbanski Artist-in-Residence Program at the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park. Dan Urbanski was a regular contributor, with his beautiful photographs here on the Pasty Cam pages and was also instumental with his insight and technical skills, breathing new life into this daily feature. Check out this link, to find out how his memory is being honored in Ontonagon County: A labor of history: Volunteers build home for Dan Urbanski Artist in Residence program.

The flying eagle on yesterday was great

Hi Roudy: yup, home safe to the hot and humid. Oh what gorgeous, bug-free weather we had that week, hey?

What a great and fitting tribute to Dan Urbanski.

Hi everyone!
I am very excited to come visit Copper Harbor. My husband visited there with his family since the 60's every year. He has wonderful memories and wants to share it with our children and me. He use to stay at a place called Berghs Resort. Is this place still in existence. We will be leaving Oklahoma next week and I will need to make reservations. I could not find anything anywhere about Berghs but before I make reservations anywhere else I thought I would check with you guys. Thanks
Diane

Belvedere was also a Plymouth model car produced throughout the 60's, and is what the Roadrunner and GTX models were based from.....

Bobg! Thanks for sharing the letter from your son in Europe. It was so interesting. You have to be very proud of him. Rightfully so.

the car was spelled Belvidere after the name of the town in which it was produced

Ah...the Belvidere. Learned to drive on the streets and the 'tracks' with my mom's.

Maija SSSSSSSSHHHH on the bugs. We don't want them to know.

Kathy P. right on with the spelling of Belvidere, however, Capt. Paul I know of a 1953 and '56 model Belvideres, they have been around longer than the 60's.

Quote:

[The Cranbrook] only lasted three short years, then Cranbrook itself was to be replaced by a name from sunnier climes -- Belvedere, a ritzy California community [and also an Ohio town that would be home to a Chrysler factory]. But it was good while it lasted."

Goes to show ya you can always learn something on this site!!! The Belvidere I was familiar with sure wasn't anything but a family car; wasn't aware of the Belvedere. cool

Guess I am not old enough for that type of Belvedere. Thanks everyone for all of the update of that word!

I believe Stephen King's scary car movie "Christine" was a 50's model Belvadere.
