Great talking with Navy veteran Alex Knish at American Legion Post 469 on Memphis Ave. Cleveland. Alex joined in 1965, served in Vietnam, and first came to this post in 1971 where he met a World War I vet. The Legion keeps those stories alive. Happy Veterans Day!

Great to see Jeff Niesel, Kevin Ferry, Jennifer Stein, and Sam Fryberger, who made the amazing papier-mâché masks at Cleveland’s Día de Muertos festival. I took their photo outside the church. Always love this celebration of honoring loved ones through art and tradition.

Great seeing Larissa Fogle from Ohio City’s beloved Larder Deli on W. 29th. She’s been there since April 2025, always smiling whether behind the counter or taking out the trash. A true Clevelander who shows the heart and hustle that make this city great.

RIP Lenny Wilkens. Coach during the era that turned me and all my friends into lifelong cavs super-fans. He seemed to be both a consummate gentleman and a fierce competitor. Photo from the 1989–1990 Cavaliers Media Guide located in the Cleveland Public Library Sports Center.

February, 2010 – The Cheese Shop at the West Side Market
I have been archiving the West Side Market for many years and recently came across this photo from one of my old favorites, The Cheese Shop (stand H-9). Pictured are cheesemongers Nicole Bryson and Lisa Seppi.

Visit the Music Box on Nov. 20, to kick off the holiday season. I’ll be showing Mike Polk rare, old-school Cleveland images and hearing his strange thoughts about pics he’s never seen before. It’s sure to be a good time in Cleveland. Get your tickets here: musicboxcle.com/event/twiste...
