looking ahead and behind


happy start to the short week!

we are back from enjoying a very pleasant weekend up north on the beach of lake michigan.  despite driving through some very nasty rain on our way up, both of us have pink sun-covered noses today from playing outside all weekend.  about halfway through the morning a rogue skimboard floated up to where we were sunbathing and we gave it a try (and fell down a whole lot).  it was a good thing we found it though, because i don't know if i would have gotten in the cold water otherwise...

i have more photos for you on my real camera, but for now i'll give you a little preview of iphone photos.


the sky was doing some crazy things on our drive up.  it was flooding in ann arbor when we left home and we were worried the weekend was going to be rainy after our long drive up in the rain.  we lucked out and had beautiful weather on saturday.






part of going to the cottage is going to this super old fashioned greasy spoon breakfast joint in one of the nearby small towns.  they are cash only and haven't redecorated since opening in 1979.  they also have the most delicious sausage gravy i have ever been exposed to.  steve ordered an omelet the size of a third grader: it was too big for my macro lens to capture the entire thing in one shot from my seat across the table. i'm pretty sure we're both still full from breakfast yesterday.


so now it's straight on to the fourth of july this thursday.  it will also be a full year since i started working for my current employer this week (yay more vacation days now)!  steve gets friday off of work, but i do not so sadly our plans won't be able to fall too far in advance.  worst case scenario there's always dominick's sangria.

what are your plans for the holiday?
