Is this summer?

It never seems to have warmed up here and we're dreading the winter. I mean, you're supposed to get HOT during the summer and look forward to winter because you are sick of the HOT. But that's just not happening this year.

I think though that we may have an irrational fear of winter since last winter. I hope so. Here's support for our irrational fear. As you can see below last winter we had TWICE the average snowfall for over 100 inches! I hope to never see that again but now we do fear winter...

Day at the beach

Lake Michigan - there really is a beach here, I just didn't get any nice pictures of it.
