Summertime in West Michigan is magical, if you are paying attention.

Our good friends, John and Betsy were celebrating good news by taking a

few days of camping at Grand Haven State Park.  They asked us out for

a walk along the boardwalk and a bite to eat at Snug Harbor. 

We jumped at the chance to see the big lake [that’s what the locals call it],

we haven’t been there at all this summer. 

 

And shame on us, as you can see by the lovely sunset we experienced. 

We had our lawn chairs parked on the beach on a perfect summer evening,

soaking up the atmosphere.  It doesn’t get much better than this.

Summer is a magical time in Michigan, especially evenings.

 They are  long and the light will last until almost ten o’clock.  Which is

great fun if you are a kid playing with your friends or an adult, enjoying the

last hours of a wonderful day. 

 

This photo was taken on the summer solstice in 2010 at Glen Lake in

Northern Michigan at around 9 pm.  A perfect evening in a perfect place. 

That’s Michigan summer.

Autumn on the Thornapple River Grand Rapids Michigan

Autumn is a picturesque time of year here in West Michigan. We have lots

of rivers, lakes, fall color, and lots of wildlife.  This series of photos lets you

 see a few residents of the Thornapple River at their daily routine. 

 The Thornapple River flows into the Grand River, the longest in the state at

 Ada Michigan.  Needless to say, a haven for wildlife year round.  This gaggle

of geese was just off the Thornapple Pointe Golf Club  in southeastern Kent

County a few weekends ago.
