Working on San Juan Island
[caption id="attachment_74" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Home of Jim Crook at British Camp - now San Juan National Park"][/caption] Last week I was working on a project with Laura Tretter and her crew at the San Juan Island Library. They are collaborating with San Juan Historical Museum to create a multimedia collection about Jim Crook (read more about the project here). Mr. Crook was an interesting figure on the Island for many years (1873-1967). He lived out on the site of English Camp (after the Brits were gone of course). The Jim Crook collection will be the first sub-collection in San Juan Hertiage - part of the Washington Rural Hertiage collections. We'll unveil more about Jim Crook when this collection goes live in August.
