Summers at the Lake: Upper Michigan Moments and Memories

Paddling a canoe into the sunrise on the longest day of the year...watching a child take her first kayak ride with her father...gazing at a bald eagle, riding air currents high above the lake...chuckling as a hummingbird defends his feeder against intruders...dodging campfire smoke while burning marshmallows and telling scary stories to wide-eyed kids. These are some of the moments and memories depicted inSummers at the Lake. The essays—often humorous, sometimes tinged with a sweet melancholy—celebrate the people and events marking the progress of the seasons, from the budding of the first green leaves of May to their falling, gold and scarlet, in September. These prose poems capture the joy of simple, lakeside living and quiet reflection.Read more
