A couple of weeks back, I decided to take a hike through town, and beyond, with the goal of enjoying a nice winter’s day, and maybe getting to make some photographs. I was thinking I would go to the Broadway Bridge and head East along the Huron River, past »
I was out for a walk this afternoon. Recently, going down by the Huron River in town has been a favorite. Cross the river on the Broadway Bridge and reach the path towards the University Hospital at the city canoe put-in. Mostly I’ve been on the bike, and yesterday followed the Washtenaw Border-to-Border trail all the way to Ypsilanti. »
I was out cycling last weekend, and I’d come down the track along the Huron River, through Gallup Park and was on the bridge on E Huron River Dr when I saw these 3 geese sitting on a log. I had my camera with me. I started photographing from a number of positions along the bridge. Finally I looked at the LCD to check how things are going. »

Today was the day of the open house at the new C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital. Wow, there were a lot of people there! You could get to see most floors but not everywhere on any floor. There was a lot o waiting at elevators. We left after looking round »
