I see this view a lot from the airplane. However, on this day it was so beautifully cloud covered. I thought I’d share this photo. I was on my way to teach in Muskegon, Michigan for the Patches of the Lakeshore Quilt Guild http://www.patchoflakeshore.com/
The guild holds its workshops at Quilted Memories in Montague, Michigan. The shop is owned by a lovely woman by the name of Jill. Find out more about Jill’s great shop by going to her website at http://www.quiltedmemoriesmi.com. The classroom space was fantastic. Each person had her own table with plenty of room to work. If you are any where close to this area, you really should stop and check it out.
Montague boosts the world’s largest weather vane. And I think they may be right. It’s really big and actually works.
Here are some things we saw around the Montague and Muskegon area.
We don’t have what I call Oreo cows around where we live so I am fascinated with their coloring.
And Lake Michigan is so, so beautiful
We were so happy to find an unpicked pumpkin patch!
An unpicked vineyard….
And, some phenomenal lighthouses. I’m betting the state of Michigan has the most lighthouses of any of the 50 states.
I had a great visit to Michigan. I’ve been in Michigan before and I will go back again whenever I am asked. The people, including Kathy who was my guild contact, are always so pleasant and wonderful to work with.
This week I am off to the Empire State and the leaves in western New York should look like a bowl of Trix!
