Just discovered this awesome thread of pictures. Although I'm not much on flowers and bugs, I get fascinated by my location along lake Michigan. I'll try to upload a few of my favs if I can figure it out.
When I try to upload my pictures it says too large. Trying to figure out how to make them smaller.

@wissox83 me too. I tried to bump the max size in config. Is it still failing?

This guy earned the name of Lenny when I discovered him hanging out with me in the she shed during winter several years ago. I left water for him and he took care of all the creepy spiders and occassional red wasps that would get in. I got him a black beetle one morning. He would often show up around me when I would be outside. When I was in the garden digging up old soil, I would find a grub and I could put it on the rock wall and Lenny would come and eat it. He learned to be near me when I was working in the garden. He would crunch them and make some funny faces getting them down. I was devasted to find him drowned in a bucket of water after a torrential rain. His descendandts live on though. We have chameleons, sand lizards and these, which are rustic lizards. You see them in the trees and scampering around in my garden. They run along the top of my flower bed railing taking care of gnats, flies and mosquitoes. That's what Lenny was probably doing on the bucket. We found him one time in the underground pipe of the condensation line from the air conditioner during the hottest part of the day. He was chilling
. Lenny comes from a Stevie Ray Vaughan song, Lenny. https://youtu.be/dmxLND2czNk?si=ka2FEwwdAEdppoKf

Ah! That tracks. Reminded me of the view from a spot on the shore in Hyde Park, but it wasn’t quite right — the relationship of the Sears Tower to JH was off. -
@HoraceZontal yah, you must be thinking of promontory point, a famous park there that juts out into the lake with beautiful views!
