That which is not Lake Michigan or Dunes
Departure of the Keewatin In a drizzling rain and with tugboats at each end, the SS Keewatin is backed around the last curve of the Kalamazoo River and out to Lake Michigan. After 45 years as a local museum and landmark, the Edwardian steamship was returning to her original home port, Port McNicoll, Ontario. Some were compelled to follow, however they could, for a last possible look.

Harmony Hill Cedars, which are native to West Michigan, are common in many of the region’s landscapes. These trees can live for hundreds of years and are among some of the longest living plant species in the area. A mature cedar can grow up to 40 or 50 feet in height with trunk diameters up to two or three feet. Its thick conical shape makes it popular in landscapes for lining driveways, roads and boundaries.

Sunrise at Indian Cut Mist rises from warm water into the cooler morning air as the sun rises over Indian Cut on the Kalamazoo River. Indian Bayou was once home to the Potawatomi. In 1897, the Kalamazoo River was a navigable depth of 4 to 12 feet, except 3.5 miles below New Richmond. The U.S. Engineer Office reported a split; a shallow branch and a 'tortuous' stream through wooded bottom land with bluffs 50 feet and marshland. 'Indian Cut' was dredged shortening the river by a mile. Here wildlife is still abundant and sunrise a spectacular time to consider the river's diverse past.
