The Sno-Go makes short work of widening the banks along US-41. We haven't had the needs for bringing out the big guns so far this year. Sometimes I would love one of these (or a smaller version, I suppose) to make short work of the driveway.

Nite


By Dean Woodbeck (Dwoodbeck) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 07:09 am:

There was a question yesterday about the state of the old Scott Hotel in Hancock. That's the building that housed Hancock Hardware for many years--it is to your right as you round the last curve to go into downtown Hancock.

There are three retail shops on the first floor -- Miller's Jewelers, Gadgets Gizmos and Toys Galore, and an office of Edward D. Jones. There is a lot of activity behind the building -- the parking lot has become a staging ground for the contractor who is renovating the upper floors. That space will become apartments.


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 07:15 am:

My aunt used to live there many moons ago. Those apartments were nice. And there was a hardware store down on the first floor. I used to love to go there at Christmas time cuz they always had toys and decorations that I liked to look at. So my parents would visit my aunt and I'd go to the hardware store.

Trollperson, what do ya mean by "nite"? Do you live under a bridge without sunlight? Maybe you work nights? Well, good nite, sleep tight!

Good morning to the rest of you!!

Hey, can he make it down here on my street? Need it badly.


By Cindy Pihlaja Russell (Gone2long) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 10:31 am:

Good morning all! TGIF!! Here is some good advice for today:

Be yourself! Those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind!!


By Capt. Paul (Eclogite) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 10:44 am:

If I be myself here in the office, people think I'm wierd. They just don't understand it's a Yooper thing!! Whenever I tell a joke/story, I have to replace "Eino and Toivo" with "JimBob and Bubba", then they get it.

That's ok though; I don't mind being the outcast of the office ;-)

Deb, 2 days in a row! - didn't you get the early bird yesterday too?


By Tom Karjala (Tom) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 11:37 am:

When the Scott is fully transformed into apartments maybe a lot of us reading this page should move to the CC??? What a rowdy bunch that would be!!!


By Gonna be a Yooper (Joanie) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 12:33 pm:

Capt. Paul, just remember; igneous is bliss.


By Gonna be a Yooper (Joanie) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 12:34 pm:

Good advice Cha-Cha and to me you matter!


By Capt. Paul (Eclogite) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 01:23 pm:

I see someone has armed themselves with a geologic dictionary or textbook....... or both!!


By Cindy Pihlaja Russell (Gone2long) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 01:46 pm:

Have a great weekend, eh!! I'm outta here for the rest of the day. Talk to ya on Monday!


By Gonna be a Yooper (Joanie) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 02:03 pm:

Capt. Paul, I almost flunked Earth Science and had to cram to get an A on my final exam or face summer school. Still remember the questions and answers to this day. It was all my FAULT!

P.S. Google helps too!


By Gonna be a Yooper (Joanie) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 02:04 pm:

Tom, I'd be the first one evicted!


By derek tuoriniemi (Derek) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 03:19 pm:

if igneous is bliss then what is metamorphic???? i sure dont know...


By Brooke (Lovethekeweenaw) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 03:54 pm:

That picture makes me think of my Grandpas snow blower he totally rigged up, he added plexiglass and a roof so he could do the driveway without getting blasted. That was one heck of a piece of Finnish engineering.


By Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 04:07 pm:

Sedimentary my dear Watson, sedimentary.


By FRNash/PHX, AZ (Frnash) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 05:32 pm:

Re: Scott Hotel renovations, and "... a lot of us PastyCam viewers moving in..."

I could almost handle that myself...

Next project: Resurrect the ol' Kerridge Theater next door, then we'd have a venue for Gonna be a Yooper (Joanie) to hold forth with her stand-up comedy show!

Click ® Copper Country Reflections: Old Postcards from Hancock Kerridge theater is the second picture on the page.


By FRNash/PHX, AZ (Frnash) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 05:45 pm:

Ooops, and in view of Deb S. (Usedtobeayooper)'s "Sedimentary" joke (I missed that while hunting for a picture of the ol' Kerridge theater), we'll have to let Joanie & Deb both do the standup comedy show!

... and the comedy show can also alternate between playing at the resurrected Kerridge and the Calumet Theater!


By David Soumis (Davesou) on Friday, January 26, 2007 - 05:54 pm:

we usually went to the Kerridge...
Saw a ton of Disney movies there...Tonka...
Old Yeller, Bambi...all those great hunting flicks.

Years ago I use to rent a apartment above Ciucci's
Market on the Main Street in Houghton. Does anyone
know of the Ciucci Family? Thanks.
