Mount Gushmore
It hasn’t been a bit warmer over in Boyne City than it has here, but they are an intrepid bunch. Where there is intrepidity, there is Babs. She brought you back a present: the ice fountain from the Boyne City Park. Yes, the skating rink beyond is Lake Charlevoix. Yes, it is frozen, but not in […]
Icy fire opal
March 31, 2014
Babs Young was out and about on still-frozen Torch Lake as the sun dropped toward the still-frozen horizon. It was all so beautiful, and all so cold . . . but look at that sky! Doesn’t that look like a fire opal? An icy fire opal. It must be a sign. I have decided that […]

She pulled into a parking lot overlooking the braided flats of the Jordan River where it empties into the South Arm of Lake Charlevoix, and captured sunshine on ice. Beautiful, she writes, but still very cold. That water is all frozen. I fell in love with the […]

Taking the long view
March 10, 2014
Babs Young’s house is perched right on the shore of Torch Lake (on the west side, which the Blue Heaven Crowd will tell you is the best side). This, along with a little vacation in Key West, accounts for her cheerful view of the winter of 2013-2014. On Tuesday she looked out her window as Mama Nature raised […]
At least there’s plenty of parking
March 3, 2014
Now this is something snowbirds don’t see very often. Babs Young was down in Elk Rapids early last Thursday and captured a view of River Street bare of traffic. You can tell that I was not down there, as there is no one parked in front of the Sweet Shop, where they sell bear claws […]
