On a day like today you could do anything you wanted to do. It was summertime in Leelanau County. Bicycles and motorcycles shared the roadways. There was a group sunning in chairs on South Beach mid-morning. It was a day to clean the garage.
A beautiful blue sky morning waiting for someone to visit and by noon Fishtown was well visited.
No matter where we traveled, it was just a perfect day.

What was a significant snowfall has turned into not so much with all the warm weather. The deputy that wrote up my deer collision was the same one that has given me my last three… Read more »
