waking up on little glen lake
on a recent visit up north
the lake still snow covered, the sun came up
sand dunes across the lake
sat waiting for summer climbs
going down the road into town
walking to the end of the street
snow still piled high
making its own dunes
soft sand below, skies gray above
great lake michigan
sat waiting for summer swimmers

I do like snow but ready to be done, it still lingers in the north where I was visiting last week, after their huge storm

That is a beautiful sunrise!
Snows all gone and melted over here thankfully. But wet rainy stormy day.

There’s something beautiful about pieces of two seasons sitting in the same space. Not beautiful enough for me to want to experience it often🤣 but very lovely in your photo.

What a strange combination. Ice/ snow and sand
