As mentioned in the section of this website on my oral history work (VZ Oral History), I was stationed to work as a Park Ranger at Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore from 1984—2005. During that time I was lucky to have the chance to get to know most of the folks around Port Oneida, the lakeside farming community within the park. So I developed a particular interest in this area. To the left are some things relating to Port Oneida (in addition to the material at VZ Oral History).
