Merle's Door ~ Lessons From A Free Thinking Dog - 02/23/08 03:19 PM

Michigan IS a Winter Wonderland - Even Out My Window - 02/16/08 05:13 PM

size of small seas all around us that offer recreation, fishing, scenic views, and awesome acts of nature, like the
 one pictured below. This was taken at the Petoskey Breakwater on February 10, 2008 during a storm.
                       
                                   I went hunting for a few photos that would give you a snap shot of what it is like to
                                   live in our picturesque state of Michigan.
My friend, Karen Webster, wrote a post titled "You think I want to move south, no freakin' … (20 comments)
