As a yoga lover, I’ve always been fascinated with lotus flowers. This year I finally built a lotus bog and here’s my the first bloom.
By the way, thanks everyone who came out to see me at the Reed’s Lake Fine Art Show today in East Grand Rapids. It was a great show and I was honored to be included with all the wonderful artists there.
I thought I’d stop by Oval Beach on the way to the Saugatuck Waterfont Film Festival and saw this weather front blowing in over Lake Michigan. Even though it started raining, I still had a great time, always do in Saugatuck.
Rachle Finan of the Super Happy Funtime Burlesque performed a fire dance tonight at the Forest Hills Fine Arts Center Avenue for the Arts event. I’d never seen a fire dance before, it was really interesting, especially with Rachle. She has a lot of energy and enthusiasm… my son calls her “Sexy Pochahontas.”
Doesn’t he look like he thinks he’s the king of the world? This beauty of a peacock was running around at Apols. They have an awesome selection of water gardening supplies there. The best around.
If you’ve been reading my blog for awhile you know by now that I have a thingy about Michigan’s drama clouds and Leslie Tassel Park so imagine my joy when I happened on this scene at Leslie Tassel Park in Cascade today.
The Perry Hotel is not only a historic landmark, it’s a very interesting, pleasant unique place to visit. I took this photo in one of the rooms overlooking the bay. The people there were all really nice too, which I find a huge PLUS!
If you love basking in the sun by aqua blue waters on sugar sand beaches, maybe you should check out Charlevoix. It’s a beautiful seaside town along the shores of Lake Michigan. I took this photo in Boulder Park, please click here for a Google map link.
There is so much cottonwood tree fluff flying around Ada right now, this is what I saw when I looked at the sun today. All those white specs are from our cottonwood trees. Whenever the wind blew today it literally looked like it was snowing.
It was cold, it was raining, and it was still beautiful in Petoskey. If you look closely, can you see the lighthouse? By the way, I took this a couple of weeks ago. We’re having perfect weather this Memorial Day weekend so it’s going to be incredible up there right about now.
Here we go! It’s Memorial Day weekend and the smart folks are heading north. I was up in Petoskey a couple of weeks ago and took this photo at the Perry Hotel, a local landmark. The place is loaded with history and first class all the way. I loved it.
