I took this at the flour plant in Lowell when I was on the way to Lansing. I also took some pictures of our capitol building today, while the legislature was pondering the state budget. I’ll be adding a Lansing pic Friday.

Circle Theatre in Grand Rapids is a great venue to see local plays in an intimate environment. I heard about it years ago from Kim and Steve Allie who were donating their time to help the theatre with its marketing when it was at John Ball Park. During that time it grew in size to the point where it needed a newer and larger home. Here it is at its new location on the Aquinas College campus.
I got up early to visit the WTRV (The River 100.5 FM) morning show with my client from Allie Design, Dean Weber D.D.S. (of the Aesthetic Dental Center.) Dr. Weber was a guest on the show. The sky was so beautiful on the way back to work that I took this while I was driving.
I really appreciate the folks over at WTRV, Chuck LaTour and Andy Rent talk about Michigan Sweet Spot every Friday around 7:40 AM.
I know a lot of people who have moved to the Byron Center and Caledonia area. After driving around there, I can see why. If you’re looking for a relaxing afternoon drive, cruise out to 100th Street and drive through the farmland, this is one of the barns I saw while checking it out. By the way, if you have any great ideas for fall color tour pics, please make a comment and let me know. I want to get some pics from all over the state and appreciate your suggestions. (Thanks!)
I saw these little ducks just waddling along saying “hi” to everyone they passed in Hemlock Park in Big Rapids.
Annie, you’ve got to go take some pictures on 100th Street.” I finally listened to my mom and this is the result. I took this on a little side road off 100th Street in the Caledonia/Byron Center area. It’s a beautiful area to drive around. Thanks, Ma!
I heard about Hemlock Park in Big Rapids from my friend Norma who has fond memories of going there to art fairs with her mother Lucille French. Today’s blog is dedicated to Lucille.
Here’s another picture I took at the Artisan’s Market in Grand Rapids. Please scroll down the page to see the other picture I took of the Artisan’s Market, it has a Google map link and more details in case if you’d like to check it out.
John A. Collins Park at Reeds Lake in East Grand Rapids is a perfect place to go on a lazy, warm day. Everyone was catching the rays, hoping this wouldn’t be the last weekend summer day we get in 07.
Because of the construction in downtown Grand Rapids, you can see things from a different perspective than before. I’ve always been curious about the history behind this old church on the hill next to the Van Andel Institute. I took this standing in the middle of what would normally be a busy, busy road, but is currently completely torn up by construction.
