(Report by Jim) Thanks to Frank Mead and his Leelanau Summinars program for allowing my Dad and I to present some of our favorite photographs from the Leland Report at the Leland Library. We had a lot of fun talking on a bunch of our favorite photo subjects! I created the first Leelanau Summinars website and never thought I would… Read more »

  (Report by Jim)The day was hot, but who cares when you get to spend it on the water? The A10 Warthogs from the Cherry Festival made a couple passes over Leland. Nice day overall. I talked a little about our Leelanau Summinar talk tonight at the kickoff this evening. That was before the storm front moved through and knocked… Read more »

Another day to stay in the shade. The picture taken of Fishtown above was taken at 12:30 p.m. This mornings walk at 8 am was delightful with wind off the lake and temperatures in the 70’s.

Vol XVIII – #67 – Grey and Cold

Jim Burnham    June 6, 2018    6 Comments on Vol XVIII – #67 – Grey and Cold

(Report by Jim) Still unseasonably cold…but better! We put the boat in for the first time in a couple years and though the photo is pretty blah, I was in a boat on Lake Leelanau, so it wasn’t all that bad. Not until it started raining, of course!

Vol XVIII – #66 – Veterans Go Fishing

Jim Burnham    June 5, 2018    2 Comments on Vol XVIII – #66 – Veterans Go Fishing

(Report by Jim) Unseasonably cold! 49 degrees at sunrise and no more than 55 all day. But, it was sunny and busy with Leelanau County Vets filling up the charters and having a fish fry at the dock. The Coast Guard was doing some maintenance on the green navigation light and the Survey Vessel Steelhead here doing fish population assessments…. Read more »
