Beach Baby: Since so many of us are in the "deep freeze" I thought I'd post this photo I took last summer while on vacation. I don't know who this little girl was, but she was too cute not to capture! Taken at Lake Michigan in July, 2012. Here's to sunny skies & gentle breezes!

She is adorable.
Marilyn M. Jan 24, 2013, 11:46pm UTC
I thought so too, Jax! Thank you!

Ah i miss lake Michigan. It has been about 13 years since i was there last.
Marilyn M. Jan 24, 2013, 11:53pm UTC
I miss it too! ;)
So I hope I've managed to talk you into taking your family there this summer...?
Ryan Reid Jan 24, 2013, 11:55pm UTC
lol, i hope so. But summer time is always SUPER busy in my line of work. i hardly get weekends let alone vacations....sigh...and then i sit home all winter with NOTHING to do lol

I hear you, Ryan. Lake Michigan's not that far... you can make there and back (with a several hours in between) in a day! It's hard to find things to do in winter. I missed out on the Plymouth Ice Festival because I was on bed rest. Hoping to maybe catch the Snowfest.

I'm trying to figure out what's in her hand? A squished ball? But it has a tail. Is it a toy fish of some sort?
Marilyn M. Jan 25, 2013, 12:28am UTC
It's one of those squishy balls — this particular one is a baseball and that "tail" is actually the tag! ;)
