Warren Dunes photos

No landscaping today. Instead, a trip to Warren Dunes State Park, a Michigan favorite.


The view from the umbrella, from which I narrowly missed a chance to craft a potential YouTube sensation. A couple kids, under their mom's guidance, buried their brother face down in the sand, covered his head with a beach towel, and set a pile of Bugles corn chips on his back. I watched in horror and journalistic fascination, recording video all the while with my digital camera. I expected--hoped?--the birds would peck him, to his utter misery. Unfortunately, he leaped up shouting a split second before they landed on his back, and the moment was ruined.

Don't feed the birds, people. Even if Mom says it's okay.

We're spending the night in South Bend, home of Saint Mary's and that other Catholic university of repute--and scads and scads of corn.
