First, if you didn't check out the roadkill table in its new table form, see entry from a few days ago, you should take a look again. It makes more sense now. When I posted it I didn't check out the final product.
Now for pictures!!!
My parents' second home!
The split pine in the back yard from which the property draws its name.
The front "yard" with another "twin pine".
More trees in the back yard.
The back of the house with the patio. The patio and the connection between the house and the garage were added by my folks.
The driveway and the big pine in the front yard.
The 'rents! Along with "Bubs" on the left. Yep, Bubs. That's his name....at least that's what everyone up there calls him. He fixes everything! That's his truck too.
This is "The Cove" which is one door down from Twin Pines Cottage. It's where I went every morning to get my coffee. Nice folks there.
You HAVE to click on this picture and blow it up so you can read the sign. This is the dumbest sign in the free world. Only in Michigan. I swear, how stupid do you have to be to be warned about this??
Yeah, I took this while driving!!
A stand of trees. Just thought it was cool.
How much more "Americana" can you get than this??
A robin's nest and egg found by ma. She's saving it until my niece comes to visit for the Fourth of July.
Our Friday night dining destination.
My cavatappi diavolo, boy was it good!!
Saturday's dining destination, but I forgot to take a picture of the escargot and walleye that I had....mmmmmm.
My favorite golf course and probably my favorite hole. It has a 120 foot drop to the green.
Here it is. Wow, what a view. There's actually a sign that says if you want to enjoy the view, let the group behind you play through.
Another beautiful hole.
So pretty.
Yeah, that's my shot from 150 about 3' from the pin.
Another great par 3 from the green looking back.
This hole is a par 5, 510 yard hole. See the blue stripe? That's the 200 yards to the hole marker.
See my ball? It's sitting about 190 yards out. That means my drive was about 320! Yeah baby! Seriously, the best ball I hit all day. Drove the shiznit out of it.
Another view of the drive. I think it's looking back towards the tee like the last picture was. I hit a four iron into the green short and into the trap. Damnit!! Ended up with par.
Now for some wildlife. This is a turtle on a waterhole sunning himself.
One of the many bullfrogs around the green in the pond.
Here's one on a lily pad.
Blow this up and see if you can see the big fish underwater! (where else would it be??)

isn't it funny? No matter how old we get, that blue egg is still a wonder to find.
That sign makes me fear for the future of America....
That course reminds me of the northeast, the par 3 looks awesome...glad to hear you had a nice visit.
That course is so beautiful it almost makes me want to take up golf - almost.
How cool. I always forget there is great country to see so close by. Miss D would love all the wildlife.
