Summertime, and the livin’ is breezy
Fish are jumpin’ . . . . well, not quite. Babs Young writes: There are some who think summer has arrived. It was sunny, but not swimming weather. This dude was taking advantage of the strong winds across the East Bay in Traverse City. That neoprene wetsuit is the only thing standing between our dudely […]
Blind leading blind
April 24, 2012
Another of my little cameras appears to have bitten the dust. Or more likely the sand. I don’t think it’s good for cameras to take them down to the beach to take pictures of the Bay whipped into whitecaps, or the tiny flowers growing in the shelter of the bluff. It’s good for me, though, […]
Windblown
April 16, 2012

Tour of inspection – Grand Traverse Bay
March 25, 2012
The warm weather held through Saturday, and it was a great relief to go down to the beach with the dogs and stop thinking about Stuff for awhile. We walked a long way. Miss Sadie did some spin-dancing, the Cowboy did some rolling, I inspected. Lake, check. Sand, check. Rocks, check. So far so good.
