Upper Peninsula wildfire

by Kathy

I am breaking my once-a-week blogging pledge to reassure friends and family that we are completely safe from the massive wildfire which has torched at least 22,204 acres in the eastern Upper Peninsula. We live in Baraga County, about 200 miles to the west of Luce County, a drive of almost four hours. This weekend, [...]

Singing the purple blues: I have to visit the doctor today.

by Kathy

New post on Lake Superior Spirit

Nothing left to say

by Kathy

It's been a quiet time along the shores of Lake Superior Spirit.

Sharing cupcakes and smiles on Good Morning America

by Kathy

May I share a fun family story with you? Yes, yes, it involves cupcakes again. (Just so you know it's a sweet story.) I promise we won't be telling weekly cupcake adventures. (OK, I don't promise. But it's not likely to happen again soon, especially since, shhhhh, don't tell, I really don't like cupcakes that [...]
