A bright shining sun and a visit from 3-year-old grandson Cole Jackson prompted Guemes Island resident Dick Iverson to take his ’61 Corvette out for a spin Saturday. Iverson, who is now retired after 30 years in the Air Force, had just finished brunch at the bowling alley with his wife, Jan, little Cole and son-in-law Todd Jackson. I caught them in the parking lot for this family photo. Iverson’s Corvette boasts its original jewel blue paint. Turns out we have more in common than our zip code, too. We both worked for Wallie Funk … I as a reporter and editor at the Whidbey News-Times, Dick as a paper carrier when Wallie and John Webber owned the Anacortes American.
