Muskegon, MI showed up today! Smaller cities and towns need to keep making noise.

Taking a moment to recognize the incredible comeback of the bald eagle. When I was a kid, I never even hoped to see this endangered species. Fast forward: I have seen a bald eagle almost every day this week (and two today)! (Really bad video attached- 2 eagles and a hawk perched on the lake ice)

Who could have called this?

When my father died, we learned that his family had been "passing' and that a whole segment of family lived nearby, and even knew who we were. By name. We discovered this when my mom saw a photo of my grandma in its entirety online. Photo I knew vs whole photo provided.

My daughter's baby (happy things today)

A few weeks old, but I am trying to immerse myself in beauty today.
