Works and Words


Works and Words last changed: 11 Sept 16.

Welcome to Mike's Works and Words. Inaugurated in July 2001, Works and Words is a showcase of my (Mike Metras’) Writings, Photography, and coin collecting and coin clubs. We hosts the Elgin and Hillside Coin Clubs. Works and Words also supports our now main site, PilgrimageCreations.com (WalkingWithAwareness.com). As you follow links around this site, you will find yourself being directed from here to Pilgrimage Creations often. You can always return here with the back key.

Some things you might find interesting:

This web site offers you a little of all of this and more. It is literally my "Works and Words" scattered with a lot of photographs. Use the menu on the left of each page to guide you around the site.

Visit my Where am I page if you are curious where we are these days. We could be just about anywhere on this tiny sphere we call the earth.

So now wander, learn, or just enjoy yourself flying the kite of your thoughts. Have a great day. If you find something we may be able to help you with or just have a comment or suggestion or want to use some of our copyrighted material, click Contact us on any menu.

Note:  I used to offer my services to create web pages, to create newsletters, to do technical writing, and to convert your books to HTML for viewing on your browser. I have not received any requests for those services in a significant time so I have removed them from this site. But I am still very capable of doing all of them and can do that type of work for you if you need the help. If you are interested in any of these services contact me.
