Kayaking at Kensington Metro Park, Michigan

 

 

Today’s photos are courtesy of Heather. My nephew James & his wife Heather went kayaking this last weekend at Kensington Metro Park, Milford, Michigan. Surrounding Kent Lake, the park covers 4,543 acres. It has wooded hilly terrain and surrounds 1,200-acre Kent Lake.

 

It’s a beautiful day in Michigan. Let’s go kayaking on Kent Lake with James & Heather.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 After the kayaking, Heather and James visited the Kensington Park Farm Center. There is a 150-year-old restored barn and lots of farm animals. Heather loved visiting the kid section with the little goats.

Late June Michigan Garden

 

Photos and garden today courtesy of one of my favorite people, multi-talented Heather Murphy. Thank you! 

Today we're again visiting the late June Michigan garden of my nephew, James, and his lovely wife, Heather. She is so talented!  (Slight editing and mosaics by yours-truly.)

Heather has a great base of perennials and always adds lots of annuals.

 

 

 

 

 

Now to finish this post, I'll add a sunset from James & Heather's weekend camping stay at Canoe Harbor State Forest Campground, Grayling, Michigan. It's a beauty!

June Afternoon Sky

 

One day the clouds were so beautiful that I had to stop what I was doing and take photos. Sometimes the sky seems to reach all the way up to heaven.

Sunset on The Balcony

 

 At the end of a busy day, there's nothing better than a restful view of a soft sundown. Here are views from my balcony on that day.

Amaryllis on the Balcony

 

After the red amaryllis finished blooming by my front door last month, I moved the pots back to the balcony.  The white one is going dormant, but I was surprised when the red one grew another bud or two on the balcony.  

 

 

 

 

Last weekend a red flower opened.  

 

 

The next day another flower opened.

 

 

 

 I've been enjoying the flowers all week and they're still blooming. More buds have appeared. I guess the plant didn't need to be in full sun to bloom. This is like a new season of flowers from the same plant.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  We're still in a drought in Florida despite several light rains. You'll notice lots of blue skies from the balcony.  

 

 

 

 Happy June to everyone wherever you are!
