Yesterday was hot, especially by Michigan-in-June standards. Of course, it WAS when the afternoon sun was beating on the thermometer bulb--but even so, really hot for us!

We never see ALL of these flowers in our yard at the very same time--each blooms in it's season, then others pop into view. But this year, with the cooler early June and plenty of rain, then a burst of warm weather, here they all were--all at the same time! (Well at least for a day or two).
When returning from Ohio, we had clear skies, but as we turned west off US-23, we saw one dark cloud. It appeared to be over our town. Then as we drew closer, we could see it was raining in one area--we guessed where it might be.
We were not far off. We drove through this downpour for about 5 minutes, then emerged out the other side--and for a couple of minutes, a rainbow followed our car.
Of course the pictures do not do the expierence justice, but it was neat anyhow!Monday, June 15, 2009
A few shots of our day in Mackinaw City. (see previous posts).
While in Cheboygan, we saw these posts holding up a picnic shelter decorated with broken pottery, mirrors, etc. Quite nice! (See previous posts).
More pictures of our cottage in Cheboygan (see previous post).
Cheryl and I took a couple of days to just relax in northern Michigan at a cabin on Lake Huron at Cheboygan. Being early in the season and in the middle of the week, we got a good deal on a cabin with a nice view. The weather was unseasonably cool, and it was overcast, but we got some stress-free together time, visited some sights in Cheboygan & Mackinaw City. We would go back--a very nice, relaxing place!
