“When the goldenrod is yellow,
And leaves are turning brown –
Reluctantly the summer goes
In a cloud of thistledown.”
~ Beverly Ashour, September
In September, Holly steps back in time, Romeo bites into a peach, Hamtramck and everyone else celebrates Labor Day, Detroit gets its jazz on, Marquette & Old Town Lansing play the blues, Rochester celebrates art & apples, Mackinaw City enjoys hops & fun, Grand Haven reels in the salmon, Kalamazoo and Muskegon gets their Irish up, Paw Paw welcomes the wine Harvest (and Leelanau does too) and Grand Rapids comes back for seconds with the phenomenal ArtPrize! that’s just a few highlights!
You can check out many more September events and hear Earth, Wind & Fire singing their ode to the 9th month at the September 2010 Michigan Event Calendar on Absolute Michigan.
Marty took this shot on Road 442, north of Danaher in Luce County. Check it out background big and in his brilliant Michigan Fall Colors slideshow!
