Hey, at least we had sun for a few hours before this cloud front moved in.
You can almost see Tom Skilling’s row of dashed lines & triangles up in the sky
right along that line of clouds!

Platter stamping with the eternal question… is one row of stamps around the rim enough?! Or do I “over-do it” by stamping the entire flange?! This time I tried to restrain myself.

Or do we prefer an INSTAGRAM-type “photo collage” post better than individual photos?!
Personally, not a fan of the collage, but wondering what you think.

A quiet Saturday morning in the City. Far less wind than the past two days, but the water is still a bit choppy... and several of the beaches are still "flooded" making little ponds where the sandy beach used to be!

Kicking off September with another beautiful sunrise… and more wind and even “crashier” waves than yesterday! An early start with dark skies that evolved into wispy colors sweeping across the sky while the waves continue to crash over the edges of the lakefront.
