Time to cuddle up by the nice warm fireplace after having an adventure outside in the snow. I took this along the shoreline in Muskegon when I was on a little Michigan adventure.
It’s March 28 for crying out loud. Whatever happened to that saying “in like a lion, out like a lamb”? That’s what I was thinking last night when it started snowing, and then I woke up to this beautiful snowy morning. After I finished up my early meetings today I pulled to the side of the road on the way home and took this photo. This is why I live in Michigan, even though I am so thoroughly ready for it to warm up. I swear if I hear Chicago has a warm spell before we do, I’m getting in my car and driving there for a couple days.
I took this during the heart of one of our winter storms this year. My intention was to drive around and take lots of pretty snow pictures but quickly got over that idea when I realized I’d be stuck in a ditch in no time.

I realize there are a lot of incredible places in this world. But, I must say I am constantly awed by how beautiful it is here in Michigan. I took this looking out a window as the sun was setting in Ada.
All winter long I’ve been waiting for the right moment to catch the sun shining through the trees, casting long winter shadows on the glittering snow. This weekend I finally got it, I think this is one of my favorite winter shots.
It sure is pretty here when the sky is blue, the sun is shining and there’s a ton of snow on the ground.
Here’s another popular location in Muskegon. This time of year it is desolate in an awe inspiring way. Here’s a link to some more information about these lighthouses, with directions to get there.
I’ve been wanting to get some photos of Muskegon. So here you go! I was visiting Lake Harbor Park, and as I was walking towards the trails I heard this HUGE commotion past the bridge and decided to investigate. There was a big flock of birds making all the noise. So I scared them so they would fly off and I could get this shot, this is after most of them were airborne and out of the shot. I have some more photos of Muskegon that I’ll be posting over the next few days.
You know how the weather forcasters are always hyping the storms… so eventually no one takes them seriously? Well, um I guess they got it right this time. It’s still coming down hard here in Grand Rapids, but I took this a little while ago while it was still light out. Wonder what we’ll wake up to, I’m planning a trip to Muskegon tomorrow. Yikes!
Typically when I think of lighthouses, it’s in the summer. This weekend, I went out to Grand Haven and shot this in all its icy glory. The lighthouse is in the Grand Haven State Park.
