Wandering Eye

It is the eighth most populous state in the U.S. and has the longest freshwater coastline of any political subdivision in the world.  There are 64,980 lakes and ponds within its borders which makes it impossible for anyone standing within its boundaries to ever be more than six miles from a natural water source.  It is the largest state in total area east of the Mississippi river, and it is yet another place I have never been.  This time out the Wandering Eye settles on Michigan.

There is something so appealing about cityscapes, particularly, decaying, peeling, rusted signage and buildings. Love it in popping colors or black and white. Terrific display!

Terrific display of aging buildings and signs. Love the popping colors and the black and whites. Stop down in Ohio sometime.
