I took this photo last week after a rare (and much needed) rainfall. The sun was peaking through the trees and drops of rain were sliding off of the trumpet-shaped flowers. My daughter and I thought it was rather pretty.
Have a Wonderful Day!
There's nothing quite like a small town celebration on the 4th of July. A parade where you wave at the participants, not just because they are waving but because you know them. Cookouts with families and kids staying up so late they are almost asleep by the time the fireworks begin.
As dusk begins to gather you slather up the kids with bug spray, grab some blankets, and stake out your favorite spot for a simple, yet beautiful, show. This year, there was added beauty due to a nearly full moon. As the fireworks show continued, the smoke from the fireworks drifted in front of the moon and gave it a reddish hue. See an example of the red moon.
I'll be putting up pictures from the parade later in the week, but here are the rest of the 4th of July photos.
Here's a wonderful shot of the remains of Tiger Stadium with the grand old flag pole in the foreground. Ahh, the memories of 'The Corner.'
Read MoreOn Sunday, May 24th, the Detroit Tigers honored Veterans of the various branches of the Armed Service in honor of Memorial Day. It was great to be able to give these men and women a standing ovation for their dedicated service to our country.
A handful of the Veterans threw out ceremonial first pitches and players from both the Tigers and Rockies stood along the first and third baselines and applauded the Veterans.
The only thing missing was a flyover.
Thanks again to those who have served and are currently serving.
Read MoreThe ferryboats are running back and forth to Mackinac Island now. The ice has broken and soon the main street on the island will swell with summer tourists. For those longing to be on the island and enjoying its beauty you don't have to wait for a vacation. Browse the Mackinac Island photostream at flickr.com. It's filled with wonderful shots from all around the island. I think it serves as a reminder to visitors that there is more to Mackinac Island than the downtown fudge district.
If you are thinking of making a trip up to Mackinac Island I highly recommend Mackinac Connection: The Insider's Guide to Mackinac Island. It's a great way to get ideas for seeing different parts of the island that a lot of folks miss. Plus, if you're thinking of staying at one of the numerous bed and breakfasts or other inns it gives reviews of the accommodations.
Hey, even though our lovable Tigers are off to a slow start (currently 1-3), Opening Day is still a great experience. The weather looks promising and hopefully the boys will be charitable enough to pull out a 'W' for the fans.
