Sea smoke

Old Michigan steams like a young man’s dreams

Gordon Lightfoot, “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald”

I love this lyric and use it every time I see sea smoke on Lake Michigan. Temperature at 7:05 a.m.: -2ºF.

Autumn sunrise at Promontory Point

Promontory Point shortly after autumn sunrise

Followed this afternoon by a hint of a rainbow.

Promontory Point sunrise in red, September 2002

I’m back from Ann Arbor, tired, hot, hot, and tired. And back to the grind tomorrow. Now, for a scenic break, a sunrise taken from my living room in 2002.
