      We had just arrived at the cabin and stopped at Bud’s for a quick bite and to listen to Jim Hawley’s music.  Before we could even order our sandwiches, we were invited to go on a full moon kayak paddle.…

      Trip up Leelanau Peninsula

      Northwest Michigan

      I set off in search of cherry blossoms yesterday afternoon.  I found them, and so much more. Just north of Cedar there were an old house and barns, next to Holy Rosary Church. Just a bit further north, I found…

      Trillium

      Northwest Michigan

      The trilliums are in bloom in northern Michigan.  Actually, they are a bit past their prime, but still so nice to see.  These were found along M-115 near Mesick. (Click to enlarge)

      Beautiful Spring Morning in the Kayak

      Orchestra Camp Colony

      It has been three weeks since we’ve been up to OCC, but finally got there this weekend.  We couldn’t have asked for better weather.  Saturday morning we got back out in the kayaks and had very smooth water.  There were lots…

      Spring Comes to OCC

      Orchestra Camp Colony

      It looks like spring has finally come to OCC.  The ice is off the lake. OK, so there is still snow in the shady areas on the shore. But there were blue skies and sun, but the leaves will take…

      Winter Morning

      More Fall Color

      Northwest Michigan

      It had been two weeks since we had been to the cabin.  The color has been absolutely magnificent this year.  Two weeks ago we found that several inland areas had the best color.  (See the previous post.)  That color had…
