Tuesday and Wednesday we settled into the Sunnyside RV Resort in South Haven, Michigan. We've been there before and it is a really nice park with all the amenities. It's a condo type place where you can buy the lot and when you aren't in it you can rent it out to daily folks like Bruce and Jo-Anne. Here's Kally and Shirley Bergstrom at the RV lot. Bruce and Kal became friends shortly after they returned from Vietnam in 1968 and were stationed at Fort Knox, Kentucky together. The Bergstroms live in St. Joseph, just a few miles south of South Haven.

The weather is pretty gray and rainy off and on and about 55 degrees making for a challenge in the photo taking. Here's a shot of one of the main streets in Holland, which is also on the west coast of Michigan, about 30 miles north of South Haven. Holland, as its namesake, boasts millions of tulips and they are just starting to come out. In about three weeks, this place will be a massive bunch of color.

In spite of the gray weather the flowering trees were also beautiful.

Our timing was off by a couple of weeks as the Tulip Festival starts this weekend and runs for the month of May; here's some of the booths they were setting up for the festival.

And the main park by the waterfront which hosts a bronze Dutch couple on the top of this little mound. These grounds will be a solid mass of color in a couple of weeks.

And in Saugatuck a relaxing polar bear .... !?
