Off their rockers.
These large, comfortable rockers, conveniently situated in the pavilion of the Gateway Garden, rarely have people seated in them.  People are missing a good thing!  You can bring a book, and maybe a cool drink, sit, rock, listen to the plash of water in the fountains and the songs of the birds, enjoy the colorful flowers.  What are they waiting for?

The Courtyard Garden of the Michigan League is a popular place for students and staff during nice weather...except on mornings such as this when everyone's attention is focused elsewhere.

Down at the lakeside.

Late November.  Winter hasn't officially begun.  There had been a snowfall of several inches, apparently, and most of the lake surface had a thin layer of ice.

The light of late afternoon in October is about as good as it gets along the east side of Crooked Lake.

West side of Crooked Lake.
Two rather poorly stitched images of the fall foliage.  I kept it because I liked the leaves floating in the foreground as a complement to the distant trees.
