It was warm when we kept moving. We hiked a mile out to the beach. The boys actually played in the water. BRRRR. We climbed the 110 foot Dune Climb and ran down. Even Caden came. Eric carried him up. Eric was warm. We did see the sun for a few minutes at the top of the dunes. We buried all the boys in the sand. Lake Michigan was absolutely beautiful! We drove the scenic Pierce Stocking Hwy. and stopped to walk and see the Sleeping Bear and the panoramic view of Lake Michigan. It was incredible. Rolling tree-covered hills, next to white dunes, and sharp cliffs dropping to the huge Lake with white surf, tossed by the wind. Glen Lakes glistened in the distance.
We tried to find the fish hatchery, but to no avail.
We tried to find a place to pick cherries. It was the cherry capital during the cherry festival, so I thought there would be some. But after driving for 2 hours with directions and a map, we gave up on that. I read to the boys some while we drove.
Our tent only leaked the first night. My cell phone seemed to have gotten wet. I hope it will work again when it dries out.
