A perfectly beautiful day with plenty of blue skies & wispy clouds.
Perfect for an afternoon of playing hooky on my bike!!!

With a bit of a chill in the air, I was surprised this morning by the wind & waves coming in off the lake. Sure, it’s supposed to warm up later today… but this was a bit of a brisk way to start the day!

Another warm & quiet ride along the lakefront this morning. Not a lot of clouds today, but plenty of beautiful sky. The boats are returning to the harbors… a sure sign that summer can’t be all that far away!!!

Another stunning morning along the lakefront… a bit warmer & quieter than I expected.
And it looks like we’re in for a full week of good weather!
Looking forward to more mornings like this!!!

Kicking off the holiday with a beautiful sunrise bike ride. Just trying to enjoy the lakefront in all of its serene beauty… before “MY” bike trail gets “invaded” by the crowds flocking to the lake to celebrate the holiday. HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!

With crashing waves & just a very brief moment of sunrise beauty.
And then right back o the grayness of the day!!!

Another cloudy morning with a new chill in the air.
The temperature dropped overnight…
a welcome surprise for another early morning sunrise surprise!

Windy & cloudy! Nice & warm this morning, but you can tell there’s some weather flying around today! The humidity is way up there… and it looks like Michigan might be having some “weather” of their own on the other side of the lake this morning!

Wonderful colors splashed upon a lot of cloud-cover this morning. It started out great… and I had huge expectations. But then it sort of just petered-out. We never saw the actual sunrise. It just kinda fizzled and the clouds won!!!

Dramatic clouds to start the day! Waves crashing in creating fun beach reflections.
A good start to another day… even though more clouds & rain might be moving in later today?!
