Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore

Today, we drove from St. Ignace to Christmas, MI. The drive was not long. Only about 2 hours. It was a pleasant drive with views of Lake Michigan to our left.

We turned north and finally made it to our campground, Pictured Rocks RV Park. We are super fancy here with a cement pad and full hooks up. This place is full to the brim with Class A and Class C rvs and a handful of tents. Not too many of them.

We got everything set up and then took a drive. We ended up at Muldoon's Pasties shop. So a pasty is a hand pie. It's stuffed with beef, cubed potatoes, carrots, and rhutabagas. Miners would bring them with them to work. I can see how that would be a comfort meal. Pretty good.

We drove to the national park and did a little viewing/hiking of the pictured rocks. It's pretty cold with winds off the lake. It's only mid-60s during the day.

Tomorrow, we will hike to some waterfalls that end at the lake. Weather is projected to be chilly. We plan to arrive early because the road down is terrible [like a 4x4 road] and it seems to be very popular, so we'll try to avoid some people.

Dinner tonight was sandwiches, but we bought some smoked whitefish dip. Sounds gross, but not terrible. Redd liked it more than I did.もっと詳しく
