Latest Emagine Theatre Opening In Hartland Michigan Continues To Raise The Tide For All Boats In Movie Entertainment

December 15, 2018

For those who attended our own Emagine Theatre opening here in Saline, last night in Hartland felt like coming home. [1,2,3,4] That’s very important — not just to Hartland and Saline and to Emagine Entertainment itself, but to an industry about which writing in the main almost seems to take glee in covering as a dying relic. But looking beyond those articles, frequently accompanied by advertisements for however-large-the-living-room-wall-allows big screen televisions and immersive-to-the-extent-your-house-is-thoroughly-sound-proofed audio systems, the ....

Most Important Part of Memorial Day Was Missed During 2016 Parade

[1,2,3,4,5] Ironically, the present deep-dig Michigan Avenue reconstruction is serving to increase cemetery visibility. Mature trees with formidable trunks and expansively shading canopes of leaves were significantly cut back along its north border abutting the thoroughfare. Eastbound traffic coming into the City of Saline on US-12 is shunted off onto Monroe Street, creating an ....

“Juneteenth” Is An Invaluable Celebration That Adds Depth To The Past, Evolving History of America

June 19, 2018

Two weeks ago, Saline Journal revisted the US Civil War through the story of a dedicated young soldier who died at The Battle of Antietam.

Oral History Workshop set stage for making more intimate connections with both past and present, subjects near and far

January 28, 2020

A static image remained set on projection screen as participants gathered for this broad overview of the subject at hand, followed by rather structured how-to application last Saturday. It was a cartoon giving impression of a scenic roadway pull-off, overlooking mountains and trees. Two adults and a child stood next to a station wagon, as if to underscore cliché, two of them facing a sign headlined: “Historic Marker.” Several more lines of text, indiscernible, appeared ....
