Maggie and the artist

Here he is by the shelter where he displays articles about the park, petitions to the Chocolay Township officials (who finally said "why don't you just tell us what you're <i>not</i> doing on that land"), and keeps coffee and snacks available for snowmobilers and other less hardy visitors. One of his signs explains that he's never taken an art class or visited a sculpture park. He explained that when he sobered up seven years ago he suddenly had a lot of time on his hands and needed a hobby. He's about to get his 15 minutes of fame. HGTV came by this summer and filmed him for an episode of <a href="http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/shows_hoba">Offbeat America</a>, to be shown this fall.
