A friend stopped me on the street today to give me a photo-op hint, second time that’s happened this week. Today’s tip was to stand out in the middle of the Eel River and take a picture of Fernbridge at … Continue reading →

This is why there haven’t been too many updates lately. I’ve been spending a lot of time dealing with issues related to getting my shop ready. So much for opening July 1st. I’m now hoping we will be ready at … Continue reading →

Knowlesville Posted on July 4, 2002 by MattApril 14, 2019
1923 American LaFrance

Fourth of July in Ferndale starts out with fire engine rides for the kids. Actually for me it started out by helping wash the fire engines so that they looked presentable for the rides and later parade. Rides were given … Continue reading →
