Vol XV # 352 – Meggen’s Monday

  It’s a rainy day here. As I pulled in to the parking lot by the harbor this morning, an otter scampered by on land near the Manitou Isle. A few minutes went by and it emerged beneath the dock. Enjoy the rain – it promises spring flowers!

Vol XV # 344 – Chasing Cloud Formations
