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.
What a great day it turned out to be for whatever you wanted to do, especially running a 5K race. Congratulations to Nick Amato, winner.

Fishtown is a busy place this afternoon in preparation of the 5K race tomorrow. Tonight the Old Art Building is hosting the 24th Art Leelanau, featuring over 100 artists.
Fishtown never shuts down, especially on a rainy day. And like all rainy days, it stops and the sun comes out.

A quintessential Leelanau County day is in store. Sunny, clear, with just-about-right temps. Today’s photos are glimpses from the Leland River – a favorite journey.
Clear skies this morning offered a delightful reprieve from the weekend’s rain and clouds: blue skies over Fishtown. Earlier this weekend, we met Lucy at Stander Marine in Leland – calmly riding along as her master goes about his work. Also it’s a great time to walk the trail at Leelanau Conservancy’s Houdek Dunes Natural Area to see the… Read more »
Today was forecasted to be mostly sunny to partly cloudy and indeed it started out that way only to be completely overcast by noon. Along with there not being any JOY in Fishtown, there is no sunshine. In spite of Thanksgiving Day being rainy, it was a wonderful day to be with our families.

(Today’s report is from Jim) Our eyes in Leland alerted us about the effort to move the Joy to Stander Marine for some needed R&R (Repaint and Refurbish). Wind died down today and the sun came out for the rest of the afternoon. An all-around Leland day. Don’t forget about 20% off everything on the store through Monday.
