The Times of Mineral Point was my “hobby newspaper” from 2007 to 2015, a quirky reflection of the wondrous culture of a remarkable small town in Driftless Wisconsin. A mix of local news stories, history, poetry, satire, and commentary –- actually, anything that caught my fancy – with every word or graphic laid out on the old iMac in my home office, dropped off at galleries and shops on High Street and “Free to Loyal Readers.”
I’d polished off a career in radio news, but had never tried print journalism. Every issue was an experiment, but readers tolerated most of my viewpoints, tastes and offbeat whimsy, so we got out thirty-two editions.
Now, a decade after we stopped printing, a few readers have asked for a chance to recapture the columns of the Times. This website makes that possible by allowing you to search out the stories you might enjoy with a simple click.

I deleted or changed nothing, so just ignore the Current Events pages and so many glitches from font translations. Further, some of the accounts may seem dated or strange. But, if you’re comfortable with one man’s kind of nostalgia, read on!
