Beautiful Michigan

We have been in Petoskey for 2 weeks now.  For those of you who do not know Petoskey is in upper Michigan on Little Traverse Bay in Lake Michigan.  The weather has been decent, I won't say great as today is foggy and gloomy.  Heck it was still dark at 8am this morning, I woke up thinking 'am I in Alaska?'  We have been having a good time though.
We are staying with Gary's dad, in his condo and we have had great walks every day on the trail along the water below his place.  The fresh air puts us back on the boat again, it is great although a bit nippy but no wind which keeps it from being BRrrrrrrr!!
We love Petoskey so it is good to be here again.  Maybe we'll even see snow before we leave!!
The shoreline is very rocky but a great perch for this Sea Gull
The white tips on these pine needles are drops of dew.  It was a Beautiful morning with dew everywhere.
Houses at Bay Harbor about a mile west of us.

The following pictures were taken on the nature trail below the condo 












Gary's sister Meredith & Stan 



I went to visit my sister Jill down state in Midland.  She is a MASTER quilter.  Although she would probably disagree this quilt tells the tale.


Her husbund John is a MASTER mushroom grower...check this fresh picked one out.

As you can see I've been busy and the time is virtually flying by.  Next thing you know I'll be bitching about the Florida heat!!!!!!!!!!

  1. Jann & Gary, we arte enjoying your pictures. Petoskey is quite beautiful. Pwetoskey must help to releive the anxiety of missing the boating adventures. Colleen and I hope to see you in Florida sometime in January.
