Something Seems Fishy...

I recently spent an afternoon in Mackinaw City. Its slow this year as the tourists just don't seem to be coming to town. I used to visit the shops quite frequently when I was growing up and this is one of them that has been able to hang on. Its a ramshackle little place and I painted it better than it currently is. I painted it like I remember it when I was younger.
This holiday weekend there's several activities happening in Mackinaw. The fireworks display is amazing as Mackinaw City, Mackinaw Island and St. Ignace all set their fireworks off at the same time. A fellow artist friend, Mary Lou Peters, will be plein air painting outside of the Courtyards.  To see some of her work click on her name. I may be out painting too and hopefully talking to many tourists. Maybe I'll see you there!
