Howdy Atlanta! 🛩✈

Downtown and Midtown Atlanta skyline straight ahead aboard . I'm always checking for the cityscape at takeoff and before landing.

Back to Jackson Street Bridge and the Downtown Atlanta skyline I go. It's been a minute.
-
Fans of "The Walking Dead" might recognize this view, from the Sweet Auburn and Old Fourth Ward neighborhoods. Perfect for an ATL selfie.

Taking a minute to pretend it's still summer. It's warm and I'm at the beach. Oh wait there are even Fall colors here along the sand. 🍁🍂
-
No point in hiding from Autumn. It's here and might as well enjoy every minute, because Fall colors only last so long. 😃🍁🍂
-
Beautiful scenes, summer and Autumn to be found at this state park that sits alongside the vast Saginaw Bay. Just a short drive from the heart of Bay City.
-
Summer and Autumn Pure Michigan cheers! 🏖🌊☀️🍁🍂

Was at my favorite Fall color spot in the Brighton area today. The dirt path to get to the south end of Huron Meadows Metropark, always a breathtaking experience. 🍁🍂❤
-
From Rickett Rd. turn onto Hammel, then left when get to the park entrances. Left will be dirt, right is paved.

Brighton Fall color cheers!

A daddy and his little man! ❤💙💁‍♂️ Without a care in the world. No words were spoken. Just staring out into the lake at the beauty in Fentpn.
-
Well summer is over just like that. 😭 It was a different summer of course, not doing a lot of the things have become so accustomed to.
-
Limited traveling, no waterparks , no huge gatherings with friends and family, I could go on. But moments like this one along the lake will live on no matter what!
-
This is my first post this year, the first post since this pandemic started. I look forward to doing more once again as we move into Fall here in the mitten!
-
Hope all is well with everyone! Sending best wishes. Time to get back out onto the open road, lake, or just the backyard at home for more moments like this one. 😀❤💙

Back to take in the Ann Arbor winter beauty along Huron River Drive. ❄🌨❄🌨

Frigid, windy, blue skies and snow while literally out on the open road.

Fall colors and summer green mixed in with the snow. What season is it really around Ann Arbor? It does make for a magical scene. Pure Michigan roadie beauty.
