Spring Cleanup

Well, we have been counting the days, and now it is almost here! Warm weather! And with that, comes that time when it becomes necessary to get the yard back in shape. With the winter gone and the ice melted, everyone will be out working on the lakefront.

Depending on your lake, some sides get more of the debris that seems to come from nowhere. From last year’s leaves, twigs, water paraphernalia and even the occasional discarded diaper, it always seems like everything drifts ashore. I have even see a lawn chair or two caught in the debris along the shore.

But, who’s complaining? It’s spring and the work is even enjoyable. It’s good to be outside again. It’s good to feel the warming sun on our back and on our face. It’s good to look out over the water and see other property owners cleaning up their waterfront. We know the hours put into the shoreline now will pay off in hours of enjoyment this summer.

It’s spring and it’s time to enjoy the Michigan waterfront life.
