A couple of days ago Lake Michigan decided to show its might by producing some insanely high waves. Apparently the waves reached between 6-9 feet in some areas of Chicago’s lakefront.
I was amazed at how high they were when I took this photo. It was beautiful (yet scary) at the same time.
You can see how bluish/green Lake Michigan really is.
Mother Nature certainly creates incredible, always changing ‘scenery’ on Lake Michigan!


Beautiful image Cher.. Love to see and hear waves crashing.. We have friends in Cornwall here in England and they are reporting huge waves. 🙂 <3
Why thank you, dear Sue! Yes, I do as well! Oh are they? Is Cornwall having a storm, Sue, or is it like here and just strong winds? Cher xo
No storm, its in a heatwave.. Its renowned for high surf, the surfers flock there. 🙂
Oh it is, Sue? It sounds like a surfer’s delight! Cher xo

Beautiful Lake Michigan, Cher 🙂
I love to view and hear the waves, it is so calming.
Thank you, dear Irene! Oh yes, me too! I love that as well! Cher xo
So wild and beautiful.
Thank you, Becky! It sure is, isn’t it? Cher xo
Such a beautiful Lake, Lake Michigan, and a gorgeous shot Cher xo
Thank you so much, Holly! I had no idea how beautiful it was until I moved here! Cher xo

I see those colors when flying over the lake to Michigan, always so beautiful Cher!! 😍
Hi John! Yes, you would get the bird’s eye view each time you go home to Michigan! Thanks, John! Cher xo
I love when that happens. When I was a kid I used to rush down to the outer drive so I could watch the waves slam across the street trying to reach the buildings. It was like great and felt ENERGIZING, to say the least. 🙂
I bet it was such an amazing thing to see as a kiddo! It really is, isn’t it? Thank you, my fellow Chicagoan! Cher xo
It’s a huge body of water with a life of its own. We lived both inland (Arlington Heights) and near the water (Evanston) – I can still remember the relief of a lake breeze in the afternoon. Lovely shot! Reminds me of a washing machine!
It certainly is, isn’t it? Oh did you? So you know exactly how this feels! LOL I love that it reminds you of a washing machine! Excellent description, my dear! Thank you! Cher xo
Beautiful color. Seems like an amazing lake.
Thank you, Mark! It truly is something! Cher xo
It appears more like an ocean than a lake. Wonderful!
That is something I actually thought of the first time I saw it, Erika! Thank you, my dear! Cher xo
You are very welcome and wonderful that you are so close to this ocean-like lake.
Yes, I’m super grateful for that, Erika! Thank you my dear! Cher xo

Wow!
Indeed, dear Bette! Thank you! Cher xo
Whitecaps! Fall is just around the corner…
Indeed it is, John! Cher xo
Wow, great shot!! The waves were so crazy this weekend!
Why thank you, Susie! Yes, they sure were, weren’t they? Cher xo
