Picture Rock National Shoreline

We left the most northern point of Michigan and headed south along the east coast of Michigan and Lake Huron. The coast of Lake Superior was rocky with some sand, but the shores of Lake Michigan that we saw are all sand dunes, and the shore of Lake Huron appears to be sand and some rocks

Yesterday Steve had to jump into Lake Superior and take a short swim.

The forests in Michigan are full of slender trees, unlike our redwood and oak forests in California.

Most of our travels are on two lane highways bordered by beautiful trees. We do not plan to do any big cities.

We have gone through so many small nice towns with central business districts, and their light posts are hung with these beautiful hanging flower baskets. Most of these areas get very cold and full of snow in the winter. Makes you wonder where all these hanging baskets go in the winter
