Lilac Time!

It won't reach 70 degrees this week which thrills this Yankee girl!  I arrived at the end of the 71st Lilac Festival; so named because Lilac trees and bushes of all colors are prolific here.  These sunny days are going to allow them to burst into full bloom.
Thanks to Clark Bloswick for allowing me to share this photo of horse and lilacs. 

A highlight of the parade is the Scottville Clown  Band.  The group includes trained musicians who dress ridiculously and entertain the crowds with their music, costumes and movements.





The Native American influence is big on Mackinac Island. 


And then just some miscellaneous shots....



A precious butterfly in the parade. 


 Not a lilac bush.  Thinking it might be a cherry tree?

Straps holding up this very old Lilac tree.
