Tomorrow is forecast to be cloudy but that's fine. I'll get some tree and shrub trimming done.

A bad weather day in Michigan is still the best day, cuz we’re here! Say hi to the kid cats.

We've had three miniature hurricanes pass through and they drove away the heat! Now it's sunny, light breeze, in the high 60s, be a little warmer after that for a few days, maybe some rain this weekend.

Wonderful evening, garden's been watered.

Kinda like what happened here but the degree wasn’t hurricane like more unformed tornado. Butternut squash in the bales found a new direction. I liked NSYNC more ….but squashes.

my birthplace in Pontiac
growing up there and also up in Lovells,
learning to fly fish at 4 years old under my grandmother's tutelage on the Ausable River (North Branch),
wandering unsupervised in the jack pines at 5 yrs with my airgun, pocket knife and "punie" my dog.
Huge campfires with pie makers filled with bread crusts and apple filling under crystal clear night Skies
Feeling the bone shaking sonic booms from F-102's, Sixes and F4's while they trained in the 60's
Catching my first trout (too small) and keeping it in a bucket for my grandfather to see before we released it
learning to drive the Pontiac starchief when I was 8 with my grandfather having a panic attack as I threaded the needle between trees
watching my grandmother dissect a frog that I shot, showing me all the organs and anatomy

I live today in a better mental place because of my Michigan roots.

Thanks for resurrecting a few memories. That was really great.

In person or memories…Michigan is the best.

Plenty of sun. Low to mid 70s. Nice breeze. Low humidity. Mowed the lawn and did some cleanup under my pine trees.
