On this episode:
- Segment 1: Gonzo and Amy talk to Joe Herscher of Mackinac Island Carriage Tours. Joe talks about the transition of fall to winter when of their 400 horses leave Island to a spacious farm in Pickford where they are pampered with plenty to eat and and rest during the winter months.
- Segment 2: Next we talk to Jeri-Lynn Bailey, a former business owner and longtime resident whose children attended school on the Island. Today she works for Arnold Transit, but duiring this interview reflects on what life is like for families who reside on the Island all year round. She is also part of the Island's vibrant arts and theater community. The next play is Elf the Musical (Dec. 6).
- Segment 3: Amy meets up with Nick Nerbonne of Pure Michigan, who during his younger days worked as a Dockporter on the Island. They are the guys who navigate Main Street on their Schwinn bicycles carrying luggage for guests who are staying overnight at one of the many hotels. Amy and Nick talk about the life of a Dockporter, and the fact Archie Horn - man, myth and legend - is retirning after the season closes on Sunday.
- Segment 4: Gonzo and Amy play a short interview they did with Archie last Spring as the season was getting under way. He talks about the love he has for the beautiful Island. This is what was said about him recently on the Dockporter's Association Facebook page: "When the Chippewa Hotel Lakefront closes for the season this Sunday, it will be the end of an era. Archie Horn is the Dean of Mackinac Island dock porters and is retiring after working there since 1988." Congrats, Archie.
