Smoky and hazy air from forest fires far away, making photographing (and breathing) difficult.
This strange looking tree trunk (?) on the beach in Echo Bay makes for an interesting wooden sculpture, like a Hippopotamus in the water.

A greyish photo of a sandy beach with the close opposite shoreline barely visible. There is a white house surrounded by forest.
In the foreground in the water lies a large chunk of wood looking like an animal with it's head raised.

As May’s cooler temperatures give way to summertime warmth in Michigan, the Great Lakes are slightly cooler than usual but warming. But where are Michigan’s warmest waters?#greatlakes #lakeerie #lakehuron #lakemichigan #lakeontario #lakesuperior #watertemperature

We're visiting Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and started with a trip to the car-free Macinac Island. It's in Lake Huron near the straits of Macinac, connecting it to Lake Michigan (though they're technically the same lake).

The Great Lakes are magnificent. They're so big that looking across them feels a lot like looking across the ocean in some spots (minus the salt water breeze).

A view from the shore of Macinac Island. The sky is mostly cloudy, with a lot of blue towards the horizon and white clouds above. The Macinac bridge and mainland are visible off in the distance (the lower peninsula on the left and upper peninsula on the right). In the foreground, there is a rocky beach, then larger rocks and some grasses.The deep blue of Lake Huron meets a partly cloudy sky in the background. In the foreground is the cycling and pedestrian path that encircles the island and a wooden fence.Waves break along the rocky shore. On the horizon are a lighthouse and another island with a mostly cloudy sky above.

Great morning ride out to Inverhuron Provincial Park.

Wooden deck lookout to a sandy beach shoreline and calm lake. There is a bicycle leaning against the deck rail. The sky is blue with wispy clouds, and to the right of the lookout,  a green treed shoreline stretches out into the lake.

Golden Moonglow lichen (Dimelaena oreina) on a rock at the north shore of Lake Huron.

The photo shows part of a grey rock covered with round, crustose lichens.
The lichens have dark areole in the center, some with black fruiting bodies (apothecia).
On the edges grow white-yellow radiating lobes.

Dark spots in the ice of Lake Huron's North Channel.
The icebreaker has started to break the shipping lanes but it will still take a while for it to reach this area.

An America Sandwich Grab Bag o’ Humour

Since Trump has decided the Gulf of Mexico should be renamed the Gulf of America, perhaps he should look to other areas that America has been slighted in, such as the animal kingdom.

Canada geese spend half their time down south, in places that don’t freeze over. So, to be consistent, Trump should call these America geese.

Some Americans might object to the name change. I’ve heard that some Americans don’t like how the geese poop everywhere and generally make a nuisance of themselves. That’s exactly how Canadians view Americans as doing. So make the change, Donald.

So what happens to werewolves during a lunar eclipse? Lunar eclipses always happen on a full moon. Do werewolves suddenly switch back to human at this time?

Well clouds occult the full moon all the time. There seems to be no difference in werewolf behaviour because of this.

However, the lunar eclipse also turns the moon blood red. Surely no good can follow such a colour change. Maybe werewolves become more bloodthirsty during such an event and kill for no reason at all.

*

I think Americans are smug that they wholly contain one of the great lakes and own half of the rest of them, But they don’t wholly own one great lake.

Lake Michigan just seems to be owned by the Americans. But the professionals will tell you otherwise. That’s not a river connecting Lake Michigan to Lake Huron. That’s a channel. There is no change in elevation. So Lake Michigan is at the same level and is the same lake as Lake Huron. Lake Huron is bigger so the combined lake would be called Lake Huron.

This combined lake is bigger in surface area than Lake Superior. So it is the largest fresh water lake in the world. Which would make the name, Lake Superior, incorrect. I smell naming rights for that lake.

Trump may try to have the lake named after him. But, to be frank, Lake Trump sounds stupid. Also the lake would have been downgraded from Superior to Trump. Trump couldn’t be associated with such a loser.

So let’s call it Lake Gitche Gumee just like in the Gordon Lightfoot song, The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. This is the Ojibwa name for the lake.
