LEELANAU HISTORY
LEELANAU HISTORY
A fence limiting public access at a popular road end in Leland has been erected and removed in mysterious fashion, causing uproar among residents with an emotional attachment to the area. “To be able to put your seat there and watch the waves and the kids play,” said Maude Babington, who lives with Heidi Weckwert in a home near the Reynolds St. access. “We’ve already gone down there twice and had picnic dinners.” *** The bears of Leelanau County are sleeping no more. They have awakened, and are busy as bees in Leelanau hives, clamoring up their namesake dune and making paths across the county. Zoe Moseler, a graduating senior at Suttons Bay, happened upon one two weeks ago while mushroom picking near her home on South Lake Shore Drive, her father recalls. “She was looking for mushrooms and saw some deer, who started running. She looked up and there was a bear across the field. She quickly (pause, then chuckle) made her way back to the house — breathlessly,” Moseler said. 05/29/2024 05:59 PM
