On a quarterly basis, I ask you the reader, if there is something you would like to learn more about or maybe its something you heard, but question its validity. So here is an opportunity to participate. I will do my best to answer any questions. It should be noted, it may take awhile for the answer to appear as a post. The primary reason, many of the daily posts are done nearly a month in advance. So by the time you read this I am already working on posts for the middle of February, or at least I should be. Whatever the case may be, I look forward to hearing from you. Of course, it should be noted that paid subscribers requests receive priority. In addition, you can always send a request at any time.

Just a friendly reminder, time is running out if you want a 2021 calendar. Among the featured photographs is Fruit Growers Camp C, Lake Almanor, Tunnel No. 2 of the Fernley & Lassen Railroad, Gallatin Boat Dock among others.   

One has three options to purchase calendars:

1) Locally, you can purchase them at Margie’s Book Nook.

2) You can purchase direct online by clicking  here

3) You can also email me to place your order, and it will be sent with an invoice.

Well, it is that time of year again, when a few years back I made my debut at Susanville’s now defunct Riverside Hospital. As is customary, this one day I take the day off from regular duties. Then again, I might take the opportunity to get a head start in the photograph selection of the 2022 calendar.

When I announced the availability of the 2021 Calendars earlier this month, I included a note that it was probably going to my last one after all these years. After all the calendars go back decades when I supplied the historic photographs for the Lassen High School Graphic Arts calendar who produced the calendar.

Anyhow, in 2019, I cancelled my paid subscription to Calendars that Work, that was my source for the template. At that that I downloaded the 2020 and 2021 templates. Well, lo and behold, I happened to download a 2022 template. With that in mind, there will be a 2022 calendar, and so now the work begins on photograph selection.

Subscribe

Not sure what to give that special someone, but want to keep the budget balanced too? Why not a gift subscription to tipurdy.org. At five dollars a month it is a bargain. You can decided whether for a month, quarter or even splurge for a year.

The recipient not only receives a daily email notification of the latest topic, but is entitled to hard to find papers on the Eagle Lake Ice Caves, too. On top of that they can partake in members only tours varying from a summer solstice observance at an ancient solar observatory to the Inspiration Point Tour. Even if that person on your list is not local, they still receive materials associated with the tours.

In addition, don’t forget the 2021 calendar, and books, too!

Information on subscriptions is found right here.  Have a question drop me a line at tim.purdy@icloud.com

It is that time to slowly focus on a new year that is quickly approaching. As usual I have put together a 2021 calendar with a wide variety of historic scenes. Among the featured photographs is Fruit Growers Camp C, Lake Almanor, Tunnel No. 2 of the Fernley & Lassen Railroad, Thompson Peak among others. It should be duly noted that this will probably be my last calendar.
