Admiring and acknowledging champion trees around town The twin oaks through which the cemetery road enters date to the time when the land was opened up for burials in 1873. Now 150 years later this one was noted 3rd biggest in the town's 2011 survey of biggest trees by girth. While it makes little difference to the living heart of the oak, it may make a difference to people who may wish to fell it or to other people impressed by accolades. Raising awareness of champion trees like this - of the nation, state, or the town - cannot be a bad thing to do. Press L for lightbox (large) view; click the image or press Z for full image display.

Forest floor shaped by glaciers now long gone Oak trees have taken over this landscape for many centuries, but when the glaciers stopped their southern movement and eventually melted year after year, much smaller plants arrived first and quick-growing trees like birch and alder created forests. Due to the soil quality, though, the climax forest succession of species in this part of west Michigan is not the frequently seen maple-beech mix, but rather it is oak and some pine, too. This view is 2 miles north of Lowell and the Flat River and shows a little of the long-distance hiking trail at the right edge of the photo: the NCT (North Country Trail) with its national office in the downtown mainstreet of Lowell.

Art on brick adjacent to Lowell library Most people can't decipher the stylized lettering style, but the artist and a few others fluent in the street painting legacy will know the letters and meaning, too.

Ageless flowing of the Honey Creek near Ada A few minutes from the south parking area at Seidman Park is a bridge over the creek. Only a stone's throw from there as the water flows downstream is this view of the afternoon sun glinting on the tumbling surface of the water.

Glassy pond reflects and magnifies the frog chorus From a distance the cacophony rises into the treetops from the spring frogs, newly alive again after suspended animation in the freezing months of the year.
