A chipmunk, either Alice or Micheal, is enjoying our bird bath.
We temporarily are at our summer cottage in Michigan. An annual paradise for our whole family. Looking out through the window, the sun is slowly fading behind a cloud. The bay is calm and serene for the first time today. The gentle waves lap the shore as opposed to the roaring sound of whitecaps crashing during the day. Canadian geese as well as swans make frequent appearances on the island. Mornings are wet and dreary with rain clouds covering any ray of light. Gradually throughout the day the clouds move back revealing a crystal blue sky and picturesque weather. As the afternoon wears on, the sun grows stronger with a heavy breeze swaying the branches. Soon the sun softens but still gives light late into the evening.
It has been a tradition since 1917 for our mothers family to reside for the summer months in this quaint cabin nestled on Big LaSalle Island. Although many boats have come and gone, and many summers have passed we will keep on coming back for generations to come.
