Wizard
of Oz Museum - in Wamego, Kansas. If you like Wizard of
Oz, you MUST visit this museum. Or at least see these photos.

| S.S.
Badger - Ludington's own Lake Michigan Carferry is pretty
special around here. Lots of folks enjoy watching her leaving and
entering the harbor. And there are a few local "cruises" each
year, typically for different fundraisers. |
| DeerCam - We
have quite a few cameras outside, with 3 of them out in the woods.
They are hooked up so we can watch their video on the TV's in
the house. That way, we can sit in the living room, reading or
whatever, and watch the deer, raccoons, porcupines, rabbits, etc...
eating the corn or food scraps we put out. Great
entertainment. |
| Snowfall January 15-16 2007 Michigan hasn't had much snow at all this winter.
Bummer
for
all the snowmobilers, ice-fishermen, skiiers, and snowplow
operators. We had one good snowfall December 1st, but since then,
nothing til January 15-16. Sure was a pretty snowfall. In between
making snowblower repairs, Frank took some photos. |
| Our New House & Property In fall 2006 we moved to 2.7 acres just out of town.
The new house is one level, has some more space, very open
floorplan, and an attached garage/workshop. Three small
outbuildings, deer, raccoons, porcupines, rabbits, turkeys... |
| Fireworks! 4th of July 2004 at Ludington
Sure, you've seen plenty of
fireworks photos. But these are a little different. A tradition in
Ludington is to walk down to the beach with blankets or chairs,
set on the sand and watch the fireworks (sponsored by the
Ludington Jaycees (Thanks!!)). For 2004 it started raining well
before dusk and we figured it would be cancelled. Nope!. The rain
turned into fog, and the show went on. It was interesting seeing
the shells go up into the cloud layer and make for beautiful
glowing cloud patterns! |
