Nature and garden

Project 365
Sunday • December 12, 2010

After I dropped Jackie off at her dorm this afternoon, I decided to drive down to the lake since I was already downtown. I had heard that the winds would be gusting up to 55 MPH today … but I was not prepared for the sight that met me down on the lake! The normal walking path for this scene is on the other side of this fence! I had to scramble to this side due to the “force of nature!”

In my experience; this just isn’t normal for Lake Michigan! Operative word being that this is a ‘lake!’ But I had a strong feeling there would be some action on the lakefront because when I was cruising down Lake Shore Drive; the waves were crashing over the road!!

Pearl Jam — Force of Nature I so LOVE ♥ this song … and I’ve been listening to it on ‘repeat’ since I got home!

Happy Slider Sunday! — Slidin’ in a bit late this Sunday Eve! As a side note for those that care; the Chicago Bears are gettin’ whooped in this weather! About 9 miles south of where I was standing at this exact moment!!
