Harrison Street

Kalamazoo's Jim Brignall was running for Congress in the fall of 1972, and I joined a trip Jim made around the district one Saturday. The mid-day caravan stop was in Grand Ledge--I think at what's now the Log Jam, though I expect it had a different name back then--with a rally in the parking lot before a short luncheon & meeting. (The next stop was at Frontier Days, in Charlotte. The second annual Frontier Days, I see.)

These houses face that parking lot. Every now and then I try to capture them in a photograph. Sometimes I try to imagine a distant time when they had neighbors across the street.

A year ago I'd grown bored with the daily photo project, and needed new photographic subjects. Downtown Grand Ledge is photogenic--this is both a cause and an effect of its history as a tourist destination--so I expected to find something to rekindle my interest in the project.

After the GL visit, I found breakfast. The car dealer photo I posted to 366 Snaps was taken from there.
