A Perfect Storm!

Winter in Michigan! Today we woke up to a good ol' fashion winter storm. The kind we used to get in the 60s and 70s. The kind of near blizzard that has ya shoveling in shifts. We have about 6" so far....getting an inch or more per hour throughout the day. Winds will be poppin' tonight. But, hey, it'll be Spring before we know it!

I shot this photo with my Nikon digital SLR. It's about 9a.m. Sunday, December 16....Only 9 more shopping days til Christmas! When did we start to chart our lives by how many days we have to spend money? :-)

Jimi Hendrix

A powerful talent, but out of control. The sixties were notorious.

Here is a charcoal sketch of Hendrix that I found in some stuff in my basement. It was done by Matt Krease while he studied at the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit. Let me know your thoughts.

Lake Devoe, Michigan

The really beautiful thing abut this lake, in the Rifle River Recreation Area, is that absolutely NO motorcraft of any kind are aloud. Although I enjoy my Starcraft boat with it's Evinrude pushing me along to my next fishing hole, it's nice to just take the canoe here, along with my Nikon camera equipment, and slide along without the hassle of worrying about getting dumped by someone's wake....always calm and always memorable.

The ENTIRE Mackinac Bridge!

This is the Mackinac Bridge from end to end! I'd never seen the entire bridge in a photo, so I searched for a vantage point outside of St. Ignace, Michigan. I used a Nikon digital SLR with a 55-200mm zoom lens. The bridge is 50 years old this year.

BAD DREAMS?

I couldn't Resist....

Timely, I think. It's from a few years back, but it seems to fit today. You judge
