(Report by Jim) Ice as far as the eye can see from our perch on the clay cliffs North of Leland. Thank you, Neal Cory for allowing us to photograph from his stairs. It looks like you can walk out to the islands, but I don’t think it is all solid ice. Empire Beach showed quite a bit of open… Read more »
Report by Jim I am thankful we have great spaces like the Clay Cliffs Natural Area (LeelanauConservancy.org) to wander around in, even if we can’t peer over the edge of the precipice. I think this sign will be here for a while. I am also thankful we have a place where family can come together to share this… Read more »
Power went out at 2 pm yesterday, cable at 4. Both returned at 11am this morning. A lot of trees, especially pine, down with the wind gusting over 50 mph at times. We have a 14K Generac that kicks in after 10 seconds of outage, one of our best investments. Don’t build a home up here without one. Van’s… Read more »

After a couple of warm wake-ups, this am’s chilly air wasn’t the best, but that’s one of the problems with this time of year, you get a couple of Summer days and then it’s back to Spring. The wispy white clouds and the color of Big Blue highlighted this days beauty. We have exited from a relatively easy Winter and are enjoying how 2016… Read more »
A beautiful day, but it didn’t start that way. Rain at dawn and a few flakes in the air on the way to town. They forecasted sunny and sunny it was around noon. It looked good, but it didn’t feel good.
