Hurricane Sandy

On Saturday, January 19, my daughter and I made a trip from Seaside Park to Mantoloking to view the aftermath of Hurricane (or super storm) Sandy on October 29, 2012.  No captions are needed since the pictures speak for themselves.  Donna was the photographer since I am still limited as to where I can walk.  

 

Crandon, WI

The view of Lake Huron from our balcony in St. Ignace this morning.

A meadow filled with wild flowers along Lake Michigan.  I love the varied pines in the back ground.

This is the light house in Manistique in the upper peninsula, MI.  The light house sits in Lake Michigan.

 A windy day on Lake Michigan.  I even got the bird in flight!

Welcome to Norway, MI!  How creative is this!!

After I got the picture of the Viking, we turned the corner and we saw four small pubs with the Pabst Blue Ribbon signs outside.  Here is to the beer that made Milwaukee famous and to my good friend, Jill.  Clack!!  Clack!!

I had to post this one since it has the red stripe on it where the other does not.  Cheers!

St. Ignace, MI

The Ramsdell Building in Manistee, MI. The people of the town have been trying to re-create the glory days of the early 1900's.  Beautiful flowers hang along the main street and along the curbs in town.  Very attractive.

Another section of buildings with an old fashioned clock in front.

A caboose at an old train station.  Bill was going to walk up the wooden steps, but they were rotten.

Another side of this old caboose.

The Jersey tomatoes were good to the last bite!

Next to the Charlevoix's firehouse is the world's largest cherry pie ever baked.

The real pie must have been something dandy to see.  The pan you see was the pan used to bake the original pie in 1976.  Please remember, you can enlarge all the blog pictures by clicking on the photo.  Enjoy!
