Lake Superior Sunset

Yesterday after closing the museum I taught an agate class to a couple of women.  Then I joined friends, Jamey and Lois, on a beach east of town.  It was a beautiful evening.

A flock of geese flew overhead...

Trip to Lewiston

After getting the museum ready for opening, I spent a couple of days in Lewiston, MI to celebrate my grandson's birthday.  It was nice to have a couple of days off before the season starts.  The weather cooperated much more than we expected.  A great time was had by all.

Beach Hike and More

Yesterday I went on a drive and a beach walk with friends, Jamey and Lois Fite.  Before our excursion, we had a tremendous meal with grouse, Menominee, potatoes with red peppers, and green beans with toasted nuts.  I'm not sure if I have ever had grouse before, but it was awesome.

Lots of driftwood...

School Play: Alice

Yesterday the students of Burt Township school performed their annual school play.  The costumes were amazing, props and scenery were fabulous, and performances great.  A terrific job was done by all -- especially when you consider that there are only 28 kids in the whole school and only half of that number in high school who were members of the cast.
