On this beautiful, sunny morning I thought it would be good to set the record straight regarding the old photo from Doug Smith we posted Sunday. The second picture was taken just a few minutes ago.

In the intervening half-century since the first picture was snapped, a lot has changed. You can't see the courthouse gable in the second shot, because of a new tree. But even the chips on the corners of the schoolhouse steps match up. This building is now used for township meetings and a place for Houghton Twp residents to vote.

For more info about the people in the first photo, see last Sunday.

Hard to forget the place where you just married the most wonderful woman in the world:)
