South Haven pier at sunset. South Haven, Michigan. 28 September 2007.

The sunset over Lake Michigan was rather spectacular last night. The geese in the upper right seem a little confused, though-- they're heading north! South Haven, MI. 28 September 07.

Katie Smith and Diana Taurasi were practically joined at the hip, guarding each other. 16 September 2007.

The WNBA Detroit Shock lost to the Phoenix Mercury last night in game 5 of the best-of-five championship. It was a good game, and we had great seats. 16 September 2007.

I've had a bit of a sabbatical from posting here, but now that I have some time... there are some wild onions out in front of our house that are in bloom and very popular with the bees. 9 September 2007.

From the other end of Lake Briksdalsvatn, looking back from near the terminus of the Briksdalsbreen Glacier, Norway. 29 June 2007.

This is one of my favorite photos from vacation-- if the grass weren't there it would look as if it were "right side up" from the top or bottom! It was a gorgeous day, and a gorgeous lake. This photo was taken about 7 pm, but you'd never know it since it stays light enough to read in a tent all night long. Lake Briksdalsvatn, near Briksdalsbreen Glacier, Norway. 29 June 2007.

Last night Margie Adam gave a concert at the Cathedral of Christ the King, and she was amazing. Having been moved by her music for thirty years it was an incredible gift to get to hear her sing and play in the Cathedral's sacred space. Wow. 9 June 2007.

I was in Chicago for two events and had a couple of hours to visit Shedd Aquarium. I found this chameleon quite interesting, not only because of the colors, but because his eyes moved independently! Chicago, IL. 4 June 2007.

It's peony time-- it's the one of the first photos I've shot in over a week. I set out to try a little HDR (high dynamic range), but got lost in the wonder of the peonies themselves. 1 June 2007.

And then there's Teeball. This adorable little one from our congregation can barely see from under his batting helmet. They start at 4 years old, and are very entertaining to watch! 21 May 2007.

Ya gotta love Bev-- not only did she play for the AAGPBL and make it to the Michigan Women's Softball Hall of Fame, she can still pound the dust out of a ball at the age of 77. 22 May 2007.

From my trip east to help with storm damage. Essex, MA. 30 April 2007.

After we checked on the goslings, we stopped with our goddaughter to look for lambs at a farm in Kalamazoo on Sunday (Mother's Day). The lambs were quite adorable, especially as they bounced around the field. 13 May 2007.

I stopped to check on the goslings, and alas, there are now only two. They're still fluffy and cute and are starting to get some darker coloring. Kalamazoo, MI. 13 May 2007.

I have no idea what these tiny (smaller than my little fingernail) flowers are, but a lawn full of them is gorgeous! Parrish Park, Kalamazoo, MI. 24 April 2007.

Tulips in the early evening at Bronson Park, Kalamazoo, MI, looking toward the Park Club. 3 May 2007.

Gosh, you can practically smell them from your computer! Kalamazoo, MI. 3 May 2007.

The happy family. Kalamazoo, MI. 6 May 2007.

There were seven of these sweet, fluffy goslings where I met some friends for lunch today. Kalamazoo, MI. 6 May 07.

Not a stunning photograph, but an interesting one-- a shipwreck on Short Sands beach was uncovered by the Patriot's Day storm in April. The beach has to lose about 7 feet (deep) of sand for the shipwreck to be visible. My aunt remembers seeing it after the blizzard of '78, and remembers how quickly the sand came back in to cover it up, too. These top two photos were taken by me a week after the storm. The lower one, by Don Clark, was published in The York Weekly. For the whole story, qlick here. York Beach, Maine. 29 April 2007.

It's spring in Bronson Park, where the tulips are always lovely. Kalamazoo, MI. 3 May 2007.
