Another Stellar day!

Wow, it is just another beautiful day here on the lake. Last night we actually saw the other side of Lake Michigan. It doesn't happen very often but it was clear and there was no moon. We could NOT believe that we could see radio towers and streetlights - it's over 60 miles to the other side from here...love it!

Just watched a flock of about 40 Sandhill Cranes fly over the house. Wish I could have captured on film. Time for some boat work today. We'd be crazy not to take advantage of this weather. Wind is picking up a bit, we'll see what it is like up in the boatyard.

  1. Love the boat name. Free Bird forever!

    In North Idaho spring reigns, the sun is shining, the eagles have gone back to Canada, the Moose have abandoned our golf course and the golfers are flocking.

    I look forward to reading your blog.
