According to the time stamp on the email, this arrived less than 30 minutes ago. I'm assuming Donn de Yampert was in Escanaba overnight and was up in time to see the sun's arrival.

Hopefully today we will be picking up the new resident van which so many Pasty Cammies helped make possible. We'll be sure to get some pictures of the maiden voyage. Many thanks again for your generous contributions.

What a lovely PEACEful picture! My thoughts and prayers are with all whom are not enjoying such a peaceful place today.

What a beautiful picture! Morning is the best time of the day, It would be wonderful if such a scene could be shared by the whole world. Someone mentioned a Quilt raffle going on by the ladies of Stillwaters to raise money to keep them in material. Is it possible to get more information about it?

With all that is going on in the world this morning, this is a peacefull way to start the day. Pictures like this help keep us in a positive frame of mind. Our prayers are with our troops and their familes.

I notice the ladies at Stillwaters make quilts? I have a small box of different materials just waiting to go into a quilt. Let me know if the ladies could use it and UPS will be at your door. Great picture!

Great picture Donn. When do you have time to do your PT profession when you are taking such great photography? Or are you practicing for your next profession? Keep'em coming, the pics are awesome.

WOW - double WOW!

WOW. This isn't any morning sunrise, this is a spring morning. Notice there is still ice on the lake. Thanks Donn. You have a wonderful eye.

It's definitely a WOW - and another spectacular photo that would make a fine jigsaw puzzle. How peaceful. You can "hear" the quiet.

What a beautiful, peaceful picture. It looks like spring has sprung up there - which means summer's a comin', and so are we. Yes!!!

Indeed, remember our brave soldiers who are fighting and dying to preserve the peace (from whence we get such beautiful pictures) we know at home. Freedom (and peace) is not free.

Another great photo putting hope like a sunrise into another day. Not so sure about the jigsaw puzzle though, even though I am a puzzle nut, and see lots of great potential puzzles here on the cam (just a few by Mr. de Yampert!). I wonder ... What is it that makes a good jigsaw puzzle? Or is it just a personal thing?

Jigsaw puzzles, using some of your great photos, sounds like a good way to raise funds for Still Waters.

What a calming effect this picture gives ya! It's gorgeous! I think jig saw puzzles from the photos would be $ $ $ for Stillwaters.

Congratulations, Donn -- You've captured a winner!

Thank you....
Regards,
Donn

Good to see more pictures of the Escanaba area...... Lake Michigan is not as dramatic as Lake Superior but in it's gentle way it is every bit as beautiful...I was born on Lake Michigan...grew up on Lake Superior...and now back on Lake Michigan....I love them both!!!

Calming, serene, reflection of beauty - All of the above when I look at the picture.

Wow, two same postings from me....guess I really meant what I saw or else it's been one of those daze, I mean days!
By the way - Did Toivo leave WA and Tina? Last I heard he had an oil leak on his car and had to stay another day before heading out to Oregon. I'm sure he didn't mind the extra day. : )

" GREATER LOVE HAS NO MAN THAN TO LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR ANOTHER."REMEMBERING OUR FALLEN SOLDIERS & PRAYING FOR ALL THE SERVICEMEN.

Truely a picture of God's Country. Thanks for bringing it to us. God Bless the USA.

For DJB-MI~Let's not forget the women who are serving their country! My daughter is in Kuwait and I'm so very proud of her. Forgive me for being just a little sensitive. I'm not being critical.

Donn, Beautiful! This most certainly is this weeks WOW! This is why we live here!

Kudos to Rivera. No truer words were ever spoken. May our troops always have a strong blade and a steady hand...

Yet another picture worthy of a gallery. Great
work Don! Think the idea of more photos is a great
idea.

Oh WOW,this photo is so beautiful.We have some of the most talented Photographers on Pasty Cam.Thanks Donn and the rest. Puzzles would be a good idea.

Hei, Donn, Really a beautimous pic. Is this taken by the West Gladstone bridge on cr 420 on the Mead #2 dam? Doesn't look like the Boney Falls dam. Or is it the # 1 down by the mill?

Donn de,

Stunning!!

This MUST be the WOW.

What a beautiful picture to have in these uncertain times. May our soldiers know we pray for them and their families and may they come home safely.

Makes me lonesome for home.
