Leelanau Almanac for the Week of May 10-16, 2007

News from the Week

Stories from the week included some morel hunting tips, information about a workshop on environmentally sensitive development (that has a great cherry blossom photo) and a report on the evaluation of the hornfaced bee by the MSU Horticultural Research Station. There was also a terrific photo of the view of Glen Lake and Sleeping Bear Bay from Miller Hill by John Clement Howe – and some information about the geology of the area from the Park Service.
