Vol XVI – #126 – Sunflowers Galore – Jaw Dropping Beauty

A mile west of Suttons Bay, a beautiful sight.  I wasn’t alone taking pictures of this field of sunflowers, cars were pulling over all the time I was there.  I was invited to drive into the yard.  Fishtown has been my usual destination, but today was just too crowded.  In fact traffic was coming in from the south bumper to… Read more »

Vol XVI – #125 – Meggen’s Monday

  Such beautiful surroundings! August begins exactly as one would hope: sunny, clear skies, mild temps, lots of great activity in town and on the water.            

Vol XVI – #123 – A Nice Day For a Boatride

Hard to miss is the new cottage being built on Cemetery Point.  All the guest rooms have a great view of the Leland Yacht Club sailboat races.  After it’s finished, hopefully it will be included in a future House Walk.         

Vol XVI – #121 – Cloudy Days Happen and Then Sunshine

Not often, but it does get cloudy every once in awhile in July.  I put the Safari top on for the second time this summer, first time late April.  By the way, it’s not an easy task because it’s about an quarter of an inch not wide enough.

Vol XVI – #119 – A Lot with a Lot of View

Another one of those nice July days.  Great day for no top, and I say that because it wont be long and I’ll be putting the lid back on.  Looking for something for the Leland Report to report about, I headed north on 22  and decided to check out a road to a subdivision I hadn’t been on for 10 years.  A… Read more »

Vol XVI – #117 – Chicago to Mac… Passing Through

  A cloudy and on the warm and humid side get-up.  Thunderstorms south of us causing a lot turmoil with the Mac Race overnight.  Best I could muster up with my telephoto lens is the picture below.  Clouds ruled most of the day with spurts of sunshine here and there. Town was really crowded.
