News from the Week

In addition to some articles about the venerable Suttons Bay Art Festival, the super-cool Port Oneida Fair (every August celebration of rural heritage) and the brand-new Leland Summer Twilight Art Walk, we had a neat photo from Port Oneida and a whole slew of Leelanau on Location entries for all the towns in Leelanau County that Cody put together. We’re hoping that you’ll check them out and add your comments and links to your favorite village’s page! (we’ll have Ghost Towns of Leelanau coming soon)
