That is just beautiful-you can almost hear the water-the forests/woods here are mostly various types of oak, ashe juniper/cedar, with some persimmon and mountain laurel. The trees are not as tall as the ones where you are.

Forest fires are a danger here, too-ashe juniper is an evergreen and resinous-we use it to start fires in fireplaces-it even burns wet.

That was this spring and its mostly low marshland on that side of the lake. I'm on the edge of the Irish hills and its mostly low rolling country.

Typical Michigan back roads.
