We're mentioned in today's Herald!
Thanks, Glenn!
We have a mention in Glenn Terry's column today in The Herald's Neighbors section.
Glenn and I worked on a monthly newspaper called "The Coconut Grove Grapevine" way back in the day. I can't remember the name of the publisher, but she was a typical Grove hippie type, really sweet and very into the newspaper and the Grove.
I was in high school and worked at Community Newspapers for Ron Miller and this was one of the clients whose job they created and printed. I would work on the art end, doing the typesetting and layout and things like that.
I don't think the little newspaper lasted too long, she was trying to fashion it after "The Daily Planet," which was a Grove paper, I think in the '60s. (Before my time). :)
I can remember the nameplate had a winding grapevine and was always printed in purple and black, the grapes of course being in purple. I know I have copies somewhere, I would save all the jobs I worked on. I'll have to search my parents' house one day and see what I come up with. It would be fun to post some photos of the pages here to see what the news and ads were back then (I think it was either 1979 or 1980, maybe even 1981).

Weird . . . he makes it sound like you just started the blog. Someone should point out that you've been around well over a year.
Congratulations anyhow!
