Very nice. I worked on the Cranbrook grounds for about two years roughly 5 years ago. A lot of these sculptures are still there. Milles did a lot of the sculptures and art throughout the campus.

Sure. You guys have all that water to waste, and then you get up in arms when all we want to do is import a few gallons out to our parched desert.

Cheez. :-)

Yes Mikeg, you out did, out done yerself agin. Great photos. You could start your own website with all of the incredible pictures you post. I can't tell you how much I appreciate them. Just try adding up gas, mileage, time and equipment. You get the idea. But that doesn't equal the enjoyment of viewing them.

Mikeg-these photos bring back a lot of good memories. I used to go out there on a Sunday & do my homework-very relaxing but stimulating setting. I wonder if they still let you walk around the grounds & lake. Again, great pics-thanks.
