A few times a year, I have the good fortune to get a professional massage. For my birthday this year, my wife got me a gift certificate for an hour massage at Pure Massage. Tera is the owner and massage therapist.
Everything about the experience was fantastic. Tera has amazing hands. I’ve had really good massages [...]

88.1 FM, The Escape (WSDP)
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged 88.1 FM, music, Plymouth Canton Educational Park, Plymouth-Canton Schools, radio, The Escape, WSDP on November 27, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
88.1 FM, which broadcasts from the Plymouth Canton Educational Park, is student-run radio. WSDP is buried all the way over to the left of the dial (for those of us that remember radio dials) and doesn’t have the strongest broadcast signal, but it comes in crystal clear in town and within a few miles from [...]
Christmas Trees are up in Kellogg Park
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Christmas Trees, Kellogg Park on November 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Group and family trees are up in Kellogg Park. As of yesterday, about half had been decorated.
I love this event, if you will. I have to say, though, that the memorial trees, especially of young kids who have passed on, are very hard to take. I walk through the park with a big, fat lump [...]

The controversy over the wall at Veteran’s Memorial Park happen to mushroom in the run-up to Veteran’s Day. I got so caught up in talking about the wall, I almost forgot about the veterans themselves. (Actually, I saluted veterans on another blog, but neglected to do that here.)
If you have served our country in the [...]
A reprieve for the VMP wall and how you can help

I received an email last night indicating that the Veteran’s Memorial Park Committee has agreed to give the Plymouth Preservation Network the time/opportunity to raise the funds necessary to repair the existing wall. This is good news for those of us who believe the historical wall should be repaired, not replaced. Here is the substance [...]
Save the Veteran’s Memorial Park Wall

The battle over the proposed demolition of the Veteran’s Memorial Park wall is heating up. I, without reservation, urge that the wall should be saved and that the reasons given to replace the existing historic structure with a new one are lousy, at best.*
This issue was brought to the attention of many of us through [...]
