For the month of October, I will be posting a photo a day in true Leland Report fashion to raise money for cancer research. If you haven’t noticed, we haven’t had a calendar or a blog for the last couple of years and that’s because Keith and Joanne have been dealing with their own health issues. If you… Read more »

Sad News Dept: Again, it is with deep regret that we announce the passing of long time Leland personality and former Yacht Club Commodore Bill Bolinger.

There are some warnings about people that have died on the pier, 50 since 1871. Wait, 50 in 150 years? I’d like… Read more »

Without going into too much personal detail, we are at a point in time that is requiring all four of us kids to attend to the needs of both Joanne and Keith. If the Report has been off and on for the last few years, that is the reason. Joanne needs some regular treatment in Traverse City and both will… Read more »

When I head back to Illinois and have a bit of time to spend on the way down, I’ll take M22 through Glen Arbor, Empire, and Frankfort to stop by the lighthouses on the way. When shooting the pine plantation, I had to hike through 4′ snowdrifts. At Point Betsie, I met another photographer who attempted to hike along the… Read more »

Our gluttons of the suet log are back. There are four Bluejays now and at one point I had all four on the feeder at once, but didn’t get the shot in time. Nobody messes with these bullies except for the Red-Bellied and Pileated Woodpeckers. For anyone curious, I created this suet feeder from an old log I found… Read more »
