Ahhh... the first sunset on the Pasty Cam. Experimenting with the Mavica, Jonathan wasn't sure it would turn out, as he stepped back into the garden area at Still Waters for the view over the new pavilion. The colors and detail aren't quite as rich as today's megapixel cameras, but it was enough to give the idea, and the email comments began to stream in as people discovered this new daily feature.

And on this day in 1998 another new (almost daily) feature began: Past-E-Mail - letters from website visitors and pasty purchasers. To read March 1998 Pasty-E-Mail, follow the link and scroll to the bottom of the page, reading backwards from the beginning.

Ultimately sunsets on the Pasty Cam would take on a new meaning in later years. Someone on the Past-E-Mail discussion board suggested that we have a memorial at the end of each month, honoring the names of those which had come to the end of life's day. Jonathan captured some beautiful sunsets in those early days, and hundreds of other photo contributors would provide even more in the guest gallery in subsequent years.

more tomorrow

Hey Charlie,
Got any recent photo's of the cute little girl holding the plate with the giant pasty on it? It was great going back and reading the old pasty email. I didn't recognize any names though. Have a great day everyone! I think the snow will be melting quite a bit today.

Afternoon All.
I see in the paper that Marquette High hockey team is in the State Playoff finals Division I this weekend and the Hancock High team is playing in the Division 3 Semi-finals. Congratulations to both teams and GOOD LUCK in the rest of the playoffs. Marquette is playing over at the Plymouth Compuware Arena on Friday night so will try and see them play. Enjoy the day everyone.

PastyCam Friends:

Does anyone remember the names of the
books by Patterson that are about the UP? My
daughter wants to read them and I have
mislaid the scrap of paper I wrote the title(s)
on. Would appreciate knowing ASAP as I am
hoping to look for them at Borders in Novi
early next week before heading to Ishpeming
to visit my daughter. Thanks.

Kosk, The one that mentions Copper Harbor is called "Sam's Letters to Jennifer". It's really not about the UP but mentions Copper Harbor quite a bit. I'd never heard it mentioned in a book before so it was exciting. Another great read by him is "Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas" though it isn't about Copper Harbor. Happy reading! He has a lot of other great reads too. Let me know if you need to know which ones are good. The ones about the women's murder mystery club are super good. I think the first one is titled "1st to Die". Enjoy!
