Winter has its charm, but a little bit can sometimes go a long way, so why not ignore it for a moment and think about the reward of warmer weather and how nature appreciates the change with its own "Thank You."

Winter has a way of creating things other than frost-bite and blizzards-
Sometimes it retreats with a freezing breath and leaves remnants of its icy grip on the landscape.

When Traveling I will stop driving or turn around and go see anything that captures my attention. As the saying goes: 'If it's odd, it's for Todd'. (aka: a "Toddity" as someone once said.) I have always been attracted to unusual things, and if it happens to be a roadside attraction of some type I have to go see it, and it doesn't have to be a yellow dinosaur, or a pink elephant.

Winter has cast its cold light onto the lighthouses, but they remain vigilant. Cold winds come running in from Lake Huron like invisible horses, but you don't realize you've been hit until after they pass through you. Lake Michigan winter winds are blunt and when they hit you, the punch is immediate, and you know you've been hit. I tell my friends that Lake Michigan is a moody bitch. It forces you to love her. Lake Huron lulls you in and captures you. Its magical personality captures you before you realize it. (You can decide if you prefer the good witch or the bad witch.)

I walked into a second-floor bathroom in a Lighthouse and was taken by surprise by its charm, it was more like enchantment...from a bathroom? Odd, but true. I eventually made my way outside and headed toward the beach and discovered some fairly recent Bear tracks and followed them to the edge of the remnants of a shipwreck (the Joseph S Fay.) The beach and the lighthouse in this area along the Lake Huron shoreline are interconnected to an abundance of maritime history as well as meandering bears.

The Dormant Dunes

The dormant dunes. This is in an area north of Oval Beach. Most people do not go to this area because the trails disappear, and there are a lot of bogs. You can easily be knee deep in muck if you don't know where to walk.
