Making Light: Victory!

Our baker returns!

A week or so ago, in Legal Immigration , I wrote about how our local bakery was about to close because the owner couldn’t get a visa to return to the USA to continue her business.

Yesterday (while I was below the Notch on other business) came word that her once-denied visa had been renewed, for five years, and she’ll be back as early as this coming weekend.

From the Union Leader’s on-line edition: Now an ocean apart, the two owners of the town’s popular French bakerly will be making a rendezvous as early as this weekend, after the State Department reversed itself and issued a five-year visa for French citizen Verlaine Daeron.

…

[Senator Jeanne] Shaheen said the “heartfelt letters we received from many Colebrook residents made it clear just how important Le Rendezvous Bakery is to the Colebrook community, and I’m so happy that … Verlaine Daeron will now be able to return to her home and her business. This is great news for all of Colebrook and I wish Verlaine a wonderful homecoming.” The story of how North What started as a community effort to save a business Chief among the widely circulated This sounds like the ideal time to test the effects of pyrotechnics on a Walmart crusty white.

BBC Commentator (Breathlessly): ...and now the Master Baker inserts the ceremonial key in the detonator, and the High Exploder raises the plunger. The crowd waits in silence...

This was, after all. A Matter of Loaf and Death .

(There are far worse reasons to invent ancient local traditions.)

If you're interested: what Colebrook looks like.

You'll get a few photos from Connecticut and Tasmania mixed in with that. I couldn't exclude Connecticut without losing every photo of the Connecticut River.

For the short version of the local tour, add "-beaver" to the list of search terms. This gets rid of most of the duplicate photos of Beaver Brook Falls.

If you get far enough into the sequence, there'll be a run of boring indoor photos taken by one Shansen_81 during a winter trip to the area. Take heart: they do eventually end.

No one's invisible here.

That "abandoned gas station" across the street that Dan Barry talks about in the Times is the very one where Christopher Wilder, the Beauty Queen Killer, shot himself in 1984 to avoid capture.

Do you see the picture of sign for Le Rendez-Vous that appears in my previous post about this story? The one-story gray building (with the "Copy" sign on it) is the News and Sentinel newspaper office. That's where two of the Drega shootings took place. The two windows to the left of the front door were Vicky Bunnell's law office. The small square signs between the front door and the windows are brass, the lower one still carries her name. The low stone wall to the left of the News and Sentinel marks the town park with the Civil War memorial and the old snow roller. The area to the right of that building, all the way to the corner, is the old gas station.
