Sunny Sunday.....................

Sunday was sunny and warmer than yesterday. We again went out for a drive. I had really hoped to see more wildlife but it was not to be. We did see some ducks and some Cranes but that was it. Not a creature was stirring. We took the back roads out to M72 and then the Maple City road out to the shoreline where we headed back towards Glen Arbor. Nothing much to see. We took a side road down to the beach and took a few pictures. Had to do it twice because the sun was shining and I could not see on my phone camera. When I got in the car I was shocked to see this.

Squinty me, over and over again. I don't do selfies but there ya go.
Anyway, I took my other camera who knows better and took another couple of shots. I always get a kick out of this sign.




Buds are popping on some of the trees woo hoo.
I tried to get some old barn pictures missed most of the good ones. One day I must do a trip just to get old barns

I am shocked to see people at the beaches. What the hell is wrong with people can't they stay home on a Sunday and leave me in peace?.......sigh. I am joking right?
Well, at least they were mainly walking their dogs so I can allow for that.
Come Summer I am going to have to find some more exclusive beaches. I do not like sharing.
Lime Lake was pretty and you can see Sugarloaf in the background. Some one has bought that place, as of yet no one has been very successful running the place.

Next stop was Port Oneida, my usual stop. Getting a bit fed up with that too. Time to find new haunts but will have to drive further for that.

Here we found some Canada Geese and Mallards enjoying the sun and no doubt building nests.



They were certainly being vocal about things. We couldn't go far the roads are dirt and muddy right now, we didn't want to get stuck. So turned around at the old farm house.

We went on the main Port Oneida road instead. Since Gabby and I were there a week ago, maybe two, anyway that dang Beaver has been really busy and has chewed most of the young saplings down. Seems like they are also making a new river outlet to the road. The Beaver Lodge is bigger and once they have babies I am thinking there won't be many trees left. Already one road is closed because they flooded it. It is interesting to see.
I took the steps down to the beach. I needed the exercise and it was easier than the last time so that may be a good thing.


There was no one there, although someone was leaving as we arrived.

So glad they put in steps because it was really hard getting down the embankment before, quite dangerous for me. This means now more people have access though. Sigh!!!
Do you see the big boat?

Neither did I until I got home and looked at the pictures.
The Lake is ice free now, just these coves that still have some lingering.
So that was it............we started home and by the Sand Dunes we saw some Sandhill Cranes fishing. Other than that, nothing.


They yelled at me when I got too close.

I was shocked that Gerry suggested stopping at the Hayloft on the way home for a burrito. Said it would save me cooking. Uh! heck yes. So a non eventful day. You know the bears are waking up now, why can't I ever see a bear? I want to see a bear. Really, I really do.
