I mentioned in this morning's commentary that I got some good pix a year ago along Eaton Highway. This is one of those.

The folks who settled Eaton County, Michigan, called the swamp that covered much of Windsor Township " The Old Maid Swamp ." Nowadays, to the extent it's called anything, it's the Secondary Complex Marsh or (if you're an old state employee) Lake Austin. At least in this corner of the bog. I think we should resurrect the old name.... Photo shot from the parking lot of the Secretary of State building, where I worked more or less forever without knowing the swamp's True Name.

Eaton County, Michigan.

Taken a day or two before they demolished the place.

Lansing's Board of Water and Light's Erickson Power Plant in Delta Township, Michigan; photo taken across the pond where I work. On cold, clear, days, Erickson's ability to churn out steam has always been pretty impressive.

Looking south from the Thriftway . That's Hoytville in the distance....
