Damn, I just deleted the ONLY barn/silo photo I had yesterday. I do have a windmill somewhere I'll try to find and post.

Thats a great photo Bydand. It really leaves a lot to the imagination. There is one very similar to that near me with nothing left but an old brick Silo. Actually I think when I was a punk teenager I wrote "RUSH rocks" near the top of it. Wonder if its still there..lol!

I have some old pictures of the Barns behind "Traverse City State Hospital" when the place was self sufficient.

Thumbs up beautiful lake photo

I found your posts by googling for help with how to get a canoe on the roof of a car. Your 4/27/2009 post with explanation sounds like a great idea that we will try with our Coleman Scanoe. Being 5'2" I am not much help for my husband, and that heavy, wide canoe is a bear to get up onto the roof of our station wagon. We need a better system!
My brother lives in Michigan, and many years ago (our now 27 y/o son was about 1-1/2) we camped at Fisherman's State Park with him. The photo you posted reminds me of the exact spot we were at! It's beautiful - and we should get back there! This year our youngest graduated from college, and now we hope to retire within 5 years. That park is going on my list of places to visit!
Thanks.

This picture is nothing special, but it fits your requirement! Taken a little south of I-96 near the Lake Odessa exit.

Took the kids out last night for a swim and a walk at the Ludington State Park.

The Parks rowboat, canoe, paddleboat, and kayak rental fleet ready for the next day.

Interesting clouds last night along Lake Michigan in this area.

Ludington has a visitor for the next little bit while they are repairing her prop. The Coast Guard Cutter Hollyhock.

Me too. I don't know if it was just freshly painted, but it was perfect paint from Stem to Stern.
