Linda’s First Monday Monthly Moaning’s

I will be making a change from here on as far as the weekly, Linda’s Monday Morning Moaning’s blog. I am finding that with the research time and writing time, I am spending on this latest book, it is making it harder to spend the time needed to gather the images and information I need to make an ‘interesting’ story for the blog each week. My book presentations after this week will be done for the year, but with the holidays coming faster than most are ready for, I will be spending my time at a couple of Octagon House ‘teas’ they re hosting for the holiday season. Hopefully to give the public a chance to see and maybe purchase the three local books already published, as great inexpensive Christmas gifts.

From here on I will be putting out my stories on the first Monday of each month, and be able to keep everyone up on the progress I am making in my search for some of the lighthouses, that are proving to be very difficult to find in the vintage postcards images I am needing. There is an abundance of vintage postcards available on many of the lights around Michigan, while others are very elusive. there has been no problem with finding postcards for all the other states involved, but Michigan is proving to be difficult. I don’t feel I am able to not include these elusive lighthouses, as they are very impotent to the navigational and maritime history of the Great Lakes. So the hunt will go on….

So I hope you will be able to continue, if you have been a reader, or want to join if it’s the first time you are seeing my blogs. I hope to be able to continue to bring you local stories that will be of interest.

On the ‘wee note’ till next month, on the 6th of December.

Linda Osborne Cynowa has lived in the Washington Township community since 2007. She moved to this area because of its beautiful hills, stunning scenery, and fruit orchards. Linda’s background is in photography, genealogy, and with a lifelong love of history, found herself working in a voluntary capacity with the Romeo Community Archives at the Romeo Kezar Library. She researched the many historic homes and families in the Romeo and Washington area, which led to a keen interest and knowledge of the area’s history. With a love of the Arcadia Publishing ‘Images of America’ books, she was always bothered that Washington Township wasn’t represented. When inquiring about this, she was told, “You haven’t written it yet”! With the encouragement of the Archivists at the Community Archives, a proposal was submitted for consideration. In September of 2019, WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP became part of the ‘Images of America’ series.

  1. Linda, I always have to slow down on blogging when the book gets going! I have a friend who is very into lighthouses and maybe he has some photos. I’ll ask him and send your website along. Weird how Michigan is hardest to find.
