Grand Traverse Bay

Spent a few days sailing in northern Lake Michigan. Weather was perfect, fair daytime winds, cool and calm evenings.

While I was in Michigan over the holidays I took the opportunity to explore my hometown. I had planned to do a long walk, but I barely made it two miles before I realized I had been photographing the bay for nearly three hours!
