Back in the early 90s Michigan Magazine's Barry Stutesman & Dell Vaughan made this journey to the TOP OF THE BIG MAC with the Michigan MagazIne Camera Crew....BUT what THEY CAPTURED on Video was nothing like what you are about to witness here!

IT'S HERE!..Well, It will be at exactly 6:45 ET...Glorious SPRING! Let the celebration begin BUT with a "cautious" reality check!

SPRING! SPRING! SPAAAAAARINGGGG!

And so it begins..........

With it offically being Spring in Michigan...There are many that just can't wait to get out on the road and let the wind caresess their face with sunshine and warm breezes.....Ahhhh well this being early spring we can only imagine the "warmth" of the "stinging" SPRING breezes...

BUT it's Spring non-the-less.....and life is good......OR soon WILL BE....

Let's take that first spring ride with Craig Vandyke along M 50 shall we?...

CAUTION: Although it's officially Spring, Michiganders are quick to point out that we can expect more snow!!!

We call it "Spring" snow!

But we all take heart in knowing that it is SPRING!

Can summer be far away?....

Here's a "refreshing" reminder of LAST MARCH here in Northern Michigan...3 days into the spring of 2014

That's just a reality check for everyone....so we all don't go into shock when it happens....

Keep the faith everyone and celebrate!

IT'S SPRING 2015!

Happy St. Patrick's Day.......

May your day be filled with four leaf clovers!

Will This Winter EVER END?...Yes!..There's Hope!.....We Will Survive and look back at it's beauty....:-)

Existing through one of the coldest Michigan winters in history is painfully memorable.

Steeped with fleeting flashes of beauty that may, as we look back, be what will eventually make it all worth while....maybe...

The sub-zero temperatures have brought many a hardy Michigander to his or her knees...in prayer for a speedy merciful end...to winter.

If all goes as planned.....and history reliably repeats itself...those prayers will be answered in about 18 days...give or take a week......or two....or three.

March 20th marks the first day of Spring!

The calendar date is "official", BUT old man winter will cling to his domain by the very tip of his fingernails :-)....Until eventually....he "blinks" and it's over.

With that bit of hope I offer you these snippets of winters past...Specifically winter highlights of our name sake, LAKE MICHIGAN!

We dedicate this blog to those winter souls who made lemonade out of the great lakes...through their videography....photography....and passion for life.

Sincerely,...A weary winter soul....your friend & native Michigander...Barry (I love Michigan's four seasons. I REALLY DO!) Stutesman :-)

And then there is the "Ice Balls" or "boulders" of Lake Michigan....
