We are finally in transition to making our seasonal home in Empire our permanent home. Quite often when I am homesick for Leelanau, I look at pictures I have taken, like this one, to “feel better.” Now I can go to You Tube to look at videos for the sites I long for.

This picture was taken under the tree in front of Holy Rosary Church looking into the field across the street.

I have taken over 10,000 pics of the area over the last 5 yrs and love it more and more when I am on vacation in Empire, Glen Arbor and surrounding areas to see In-Laws. Here are some of my pics and hope you enjoy them as much as I love taking them.

Attached is my photo of Sleeping Bear!  This picture was taken in summer 2007 from the woods on the Empire Bluffs trail.

I love Leelanau County because of Sleeping Bear.  I have Anishinaabe/Ojibwe heritage so the lore and legend of Sleeping Bear is part of my culture!
