This old asylum area in Michigan was opened in 1885 but closed permanently in 1989. Some recent reconstruction of the buildings has turned it into a flourishing hotel, office and shopping centre.
These are ice balls that have formed along the shore and in Lake Michigan. The creation of these ice balls was probably caused by the temperature being just below freezing, the motion of the waves, and the wind.
