Ray Burt, on left holding a snowball, and his brother Harry in front of a building at the family home near Davis Bay Rd. and Burt Rd. Their parents, John and Sarah (Baker) Burt brought the family from Iowa around 1905. John Burt was a professional photographer, and responsible for many of the fine images in our collection. He was also the “Watkins man” selling spices, soaps and liniments. Notice the two very tall snowmen on the right.

Originally from Los Angeles, Laura Adams came with her husband Steven and their first child (then an infant) to Lopez Island, over twenty five years ago. Like many of us she wanted to raise her family in an environment that was based on values of health, simplicity and community. What she didn’t express, but what was gathered from an interview with her on a rainy Thursday morning in her wood shop, the last value on that list was creativity.
For those of you who have been to the Lopez Island library recently, you are by now familiar with the dynamic artwork of Marc Foster Grant. And for those of you who have not yet seen the creations of this extraordinary painter, hurry, please, for it will only be on display for two more weeks. Do not under any circumstances miss an opportunity to view Marc’s current exhibition, 3 Times 3, featuring nine new paintings.
