Lens-Artists Challenge #139 – Special Moments
“No coward soul is mine,No trembler in the world’s storm-troubled sphere:I see Heaven’s glories shine,And faith shines equal, arming me from fear.” ~ Emily Brontë September 16, 2017 was my last stay at Big Sable Light.

Goodbye, 2017
This is the Lake Michigan side of the tall dune that protects our home. You can see a glimpse of The Lake in the mid-ground, here she is thinking of icing up. In the distance is the dark blue cloud cover of the ever present Lake Effect Snow Machine.
