      Evening Kayak

      Orchestra Camp Colony

      I don’t usually kayak in the evening, but rather early in the morning.  However, it was such a nice evening that I decided to venture out.  At first, I was disappointed by all the boat traffic.  Far more boats than…

      Weeds vs. Wild Flowers

      Northwest Michigan

      Inspired by a blossom just outside my front door, I started looking for other blossoms.  My search took me around the yard and down State Park Hwy as far as Vagabond.  All these photos were in that small area.  Some…

      Sunrise on Three Lakes

      Southwest Michigan

      It was a cool, crisp morning today.  The sun was just coming up, but shining brightly.  Because it was so chilly this morning, only about 40 degrees, the fog was lifting off the lake. The sun was to my back…

      Sleeping Bear Panorama

      Northwest Michigan

      Over Memorial Day weekend, Rose and I took a couple hikes in the Sleeping Bear area.  It is an easy drive from OCC.  That’s just one of the things I like about the Interlochen area; so much so close.  Here…

      Wild Flower & Fence

      Southwest Michigan

      Just down the road from where I live is a board fence that separates the roadway from a corn field.  Just an ordinary board fence.  A neighbor keeps the grass mowed between the fence and the road and even plants…
