It was supposed to rain, but we pressed on, and it ended up being beautiful. Chilly but pleasant. Just cold enough to make you appreciate the warm fire. Plus the sound of the river to lull you to sleep.
Hard to beat!
I usually go with dehydrated meals, but packed heavy on real food this time, for science. I got myself a small lightweight nonstick pan, and fried up a whole steak for dinner, bacon and eggs for first breakfast, and pancakes and eggs for the second breakfast. I only had one dehydrated meal this trip. I learned a lot!
Grew up in that general area away back when, and pics like this bring a sort of gentle homesickness for a place I’ve not been in for multiple decades. Such a lovely, quiet place — far enough away from town, ofc. These days, I enjoy the mountains, hills, and ocean nearby, but I have such fond almost-Narnial memories of Michigan in my childhood. Thank you, for reminding me today. 💚
Glad I could be of service! I do love it here 😁
