The folks at Still Waters always enjoy it when Carol Peterson brings her golden retriever "Cody" for a visit. I have tried to capture Cody "taking himself for a walk" around the halls of the Home. It's hilarious! - He takes the end of his leash in his teeth and appears to lead himself around just like a human.

As mentioned on today's Pasty Cam home page, Dan Sullivan had a nice article in the Mining Gazette this afternoon, with some comments by Evelyn Alatalo (right) about her involvement over the years helping to make pasties. Dan also had an article in Saturday's Gazette about (of all things) rock piles. He reminded us of Gert Keranen's unforgetable quote on her birthday back in the winter of '97-98, when asked by the Pasty Cam how old she was, quipped: "Old enough for the rock pile".

Is there ANYPLACE on the 'Net we could read the articles mentioned? I've tried looking at the Gazette page and it's never updated, for months at a time. I even wrote to them to inquire about that, you'd think they'd like to join the 'Net-age and keep their page updated! Anyway, if you know of a place where we could read that, it sure would be fun for those of us away from the area. Since the story is so much linked to your interests, perhaps the Gazette would let you reprint it on pasty.com? Just a thought. Keep up your good work. The pictures are awesome!

Too bad the Gazette isn't "on-line." It would be nice to read the article. Any chance PastyCam might be able to post the article for non-UP dwelling Yoopers?

I just discovered this web site while checking George's Eagle Harbor site. I can't tell you how excited I was to discover that Still Waters sponsors this site since my Auntie Eva Canalley lives there. I visited your beautiful facility in August. I had not been back to the UP for 40 years and I returned with my brothers and sister to visit relatives and vacation at Copper Harbor and visit as many of my childhood vacation spots as possible. We all shed a few tears over the absolute beauty of the Keeweenaw and Superior. And eating pastys!!!!! My Auntie Estelle Halley makes the best pastys of all. Loaded with meat.
Would it be possible for you to show this to Auntie Eve or give her a copy. She lived here in Pennsylvania for my entire childhood and many of my adult years (my deceased Mom's sister Margaret "Pert" Remillard Canally). Thank you so much. Your web site is great and I've added it to my favorites list.
