The Moods of Presque Isle is a book of photography, poetry, and prose which provides a visual treat for your mind and eyes. The poetry and photography blend to produce reflections and emotions within the reader. The setting is an eight mile long sand peninsula jutting out into Lake Erie. Formed over the last thousand years and constantly moving with Lake Erie currents, it is the most visited state park in the Pennsylvania system of parks. It is a haven for natural beauty, birds, animals and rare plants. Presque Isle seems to be one of the places on earth that God paused to create something special. A place where man could stop and reflect on what is right about the world. A place to pause for a moment to drink in the beauty that nature has to offer. It is an enchanting place where colors seem brighter, air softer and where time moves slowly. Presque Isle is one of those places calm enough for you to get quiet inside yourself. A place where solitude and reflection are greater gifts than sun and sand. The subjects of the poems and prose in the book are varied. They run from colors of fall to the tiny kingdom found on the forest floor; from water lilies to the horrors of 9/11; from an approaching storm to a lovers hand and hand walk on the beach. Season, colors, moods, and dreams fill the pages of this book of reflections and life experiences. As you read each poem, you will be able to slow down, take a minute to reflect on the complementary photographs accompanying the words. The theme of the book is the beauty, quiet, and solitude offered by nature. The author believes that if you love nature, nature will open up a whole new world for your enjoyment. The book is an attempt to paint words and photography as one and create a "Mood" with nature for the reader.

CARNIVAL OF SHAME is a reflective commentary on the Fifty-Year Conservative "Assault on America," from the 1971 "Powell" political grand design to save "Capitalism from Democracy" and the 1981 Republican "Trickle-Down" Revolution to the January 6, 2021 Republican violent insurrection to overturn the Constitution and the electoral will of the people. Yesterday's America of promise, opportunity, and prosperity for the many is today an America of "concentrated wealth," wealthy tax cuts, and a Republican Subsistence "Trickle-Down" Society for the "surplus" left behind. The time is now the moment is here for a People of Liberty to come together for an America of secure democratic institutions, a strong middle class, and a Republic of "Liberty and Justice for All.

The intent of poetry is to say something beautifully so that your words not only conjure emotions and feelings but also the images and symbolism itself. My intent is to communicate that empathy, compassion, and charity are not forgotten; that integrity, loyalty, and truth are not forsaken; and that real love is not extinct for those who would rather a desolate heart for the loss of love than a destitute life bereft of ever knowing. "Life ain't no crystal stair." It was not my intent when creating these works to do so for mass consumption. However, after sharing with several family members and close lifelong friends, I was convinced by the pleasure they appeared to derive and with their persistent urging. "Deep calleth unto deep at the sounds of thy waterspouts" (Psalm 42:7).

When I was a child my hair would tangle with the breeze of a whisper. On the verge of tears at the mere sight of my brush, Nana would distract me by scolding the wild animals she said were causing my tangles. Years later I used the same distraction for my daughters, and now granddaughters. I have braided this everyday experience into a ridiculous rhyme which I completed after several days of detangling and rebraiding my youngest granddaughter's hair.

The mother moose was standing by her three-week old calf. She gave me a cold hard stare and then laid her ears back. I could actually see the hair rise up on the back of her neck just before she put her head down and charged. Barely into my second month as a Baxter State Park ranger and a big animal was angry and running straight at me. She could kill me or cause serious injury with one flail of her hooves. This was surreal. I was a ranger, for Pete's sake. How was I going to explain this in my weekly report? The Bear Dogs of Katahdin is Steve Tetreault´s true account of his time spent as a ranger in Maine´s Baxter State Park, a wilderness area of over 204,000 acres. In this collection of anecdotal stories, Steve describes his life as a new ranger in a strange place, meeting new people--and learning about his wild neighbors. If you are a lover of the outdoors in general, or perhaps Maine and Baxter State Park in particular, you will appreciate Steve´s depiction of a park ranger´s life from the point of view of a young and idealistic person.
