Spring is coming

This morning I walked out to a part of Lake Michigan that normally is under water. The hard freeze of this winter created many frozen glaciers, and they have finally begun to recede. The lake is now reclaiming the space it occupies in the warmer months, but winter will still linger for a little bit.

We’re all in a lot of trouble

It’s been rainy this summer in the large city where I live. The rainiest 24 hour period in recorded history happened not too long ago, and the rainiest July was just completed. All of those melting glaciers seem to have made their way into the rain system, or whatever the right word for it is.
