Flat as a Pancake.....

Sitting on the deck reading a book yesterday afternoon and I suddenly became aware of the "quiet". No breeze....no sounds of waves hitting the beach or the breakwater. I looked up and realized that big Lake Michigan was a smooth as glass. Not a ripple. Interesting clouds floating overhead....but the lake was still.

That's part of the fun when you are lucky enough to live near a big body of water. It changes all the time. Day to day.....hour to hour.....look out the window or go for a walk and the scenery changes. Peaceful, still, tame.... or.....

Don't let that quiet fool you....when Lake Michigan wakes up she is impressive, powerful and not to be ignored.

Love watching "our" lake!
