Winter shots- Saugatuck, Michigan

Lately Saugatuck Michigan has been experiencing winter wonderland. We have a break in the weather for a day or so, with more snow on the way Sunday.

Here are some photos the Ted Swoboda of Swoboda Images recently took.

Walkway over looking Lake Michigan.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Steps to the beach on Lake Michigan at Oval Beach. You can see how far into Lake Michigan the ice has built up according to the two small wood pilings in the center of the photo. That is the point the waters edge usually starts.

Saugatuck is beautiful even in the dead of winter.

Konnie, thanx for stopping by. I would love to claim the photos as my own, but the disposable camera I use doesn't do the photos I take any justice. Grin.

A good friend Ted Swoboda took these and sent them to me.

Jo, I know what your saying about spring, is it ever going to arrive again? They are calling for another 10" here on Sunday, that's after we get as layer of freezing rain first, yippee.

So beautiful... we never get scenes like this in my part of Arizona but... it snowed on the hills near Phoenix today. Such a welcome treat!

Duane- These are absolutely beautiful shot.  I feel like I should go out and play with snow balls.

Jennifer, today you would need a rain coat at this time, ice skates in a few hours as it's supposed to start freezing and then a snowmobile later tonight as they are calling for 10" of snow on top of this mess.

Duane - beautiful photos again! I have never visited Saugatuck in the winter - I usually stop at Grand Haven but you certainly make a good case for a road trip! Just reading your comment to Jennifer -- wasn't that downfall this morning horendous? It makes for treacherous driving with the snow over ice. Keep the beautiful pictures coming!

These are awesome photos! I have never seen a beach with snow on it! Thanks for sharing!

Mary, you should make a road trip some time. Downtown is beautiful with all the lights in the trees. Actually not sure if they are still lit up now, but could check for you.

So far no change in the weather that they were calling for, let's hope it passes us by, just once....

Rich, I would be happy to change places with you if you care to experience it for awhile. Grin.

Hi Duane - I'll give you a call about that trip! Lt snow in Coopersville this morning - just enough to cover the dirty snow and make it a pretty white again!

02/18/2008 09:34 AM by Mary Bigelow, Renewing Your Life! (Contractors Building Supply/Vandyke Mortgage)


Mary, sounds great. Same here with the snow. The 10" they were calling for didn't show, maybe a couple of inches, but now I just heard another 4" possible today and 4" tonight, so we may still see the 10" total, yippee. Not.

Nice pics but i still want spring. I'm truly tired of all the snow. I want green grass and spring flowers. Visualize.

Robert, I'm there with you in the visual! Can't get here soon enough.

Allen, we were just down by Beverly Shores in Indiana, have you ever been through there? Very unique homes along the lakeshore.

03/06/2008 05:50 PM by Robert L. Brown~Grand Rapids Real Estate Flexit Realty, West Michigan (www.mrbrownsellsgr.com)


Robert, I'm so hoping. I heard a chance of snow again, let's hope they are wrong, once... I'm ready for green grass and solar heat too.
