You might want to take a look at … Continue reading Thumbwind

Snow Moon
Hemlock Crossings, Ottawa County MI 2.26.2021 I could use some photo education to learn how to take a decent photo of the moon, because it was so much more beautiful in person, but I do like how the tree branches seem to be cradling the moon. I hope this photo gives you pleasure.

Happy Birthday Edgar Allan Poe
Visit Your Book Group to read the full text of Poe's short story "The Masque of the Red Death." It's creepy - not suprisingly.

Relax with these waves.
We went to Holland State Park to catch the late afternoon sunset today. This is one of the few beaches along our coastline with no major erosion, so I was able to walk about 300 feet from our parking spot to the edge of the waves -so close my shoes got wet when some of … Continue reading Relax with these waves.
