Could it be my love of these waters and land go far and deep into the depth of my soul as one of my greats gone before me was a keeper of the lights on South Manitou island, John Tobin?
I would love to have a place here someday. Time will tell...

My heart is called to the coasts of England...and I recently found out my paternal g.g.g.grands came from Cornwall in the 1800's...and my g.g.g.g.grands came from Germany and settled in Lancaster, PA...they were Pennsylvania Dutch. Whoo hoo. I KNEW I had yearnings for England for a reason! My dream trip has always been to go to England/Ireland...go figure! ;o) XOXO
My heart is called to Scotland..though my ancestry says I'm German...either way would love to visit someday:)

I was revisting your blog recently.I had looked at it before.
I've been writing a blog about my desire to be a farmer, and my observations.

We live in Benzie County and LOVE it - winters are long and grey, but hey, it's Michigan! Hope you can find your slice up around these parts some day - there are some bargains ($$$) these days too :)
I certainly understand, having grown up on Little Traverse Bay (Lake Michigan). Water has a way of stirring one's soul. Wow...your post was timely with regard to the card that is on its way to you...you'll see once you receive it.
Oh I love Leelenau...One of the happiest, most beautiful places I know. I love reading your posts :)
we're seriously reconsidering retiring there instead of our long planned-for retirement in Hawaii. We get Traverse magazine here in Zambia and it makes us miss Leelanau. Plus, it's a warmer hardiness zone (zone 6!!) so there are more planting days.
