What a September!

September went by in a flash. Some of the highlights.
-An evening event at the fort created great pictures of downtown!





-
-A cloudy evening for the Grand.
-Peggy and I went out with Fr. Rey for desserts at the Jockey Club and drinks at the Gatehouse.






-Fr. Rey and Peggy.

-A WWII plane flew from the Detroit area to the island and gave free tours.
-It was designed for paratroopers.

-September brought me back to the mainland midmonth, which meant more boat rides...but more chances to get closer to freighters!


-I still have over 100 miles to go on my bike by the end of the season. A few trips around the island found rock art.







- This one was brought down by the waves the second time I came around.

-Morning glories finally blooming after a cold summer.











-A blue heron stalks its prey.

-Jennifer and I went to Taquanemon, but found this fox near Trout Lake.


-Us at the upper falls.















-A backward glance.

-Taking the rowboat to the lower falls.



-Me in the falls, complete with jazz hands.












-Jennifer becoming one with nature.














-We sat with our feet in the falls for a long time





















-We couldn't figure out what this guy was doing. He was waiting for something.




-Aaron, Sandy and I went our for Jennifer's birthday at Leggs Inn.

-Sandy was very happy.
-The island emptying out for the season.
