Twice this week I was able to spend some time on the beach. The other day I had a surprise when an old friend tracked me down. Sasha Roberts-Levi worked at the nursery school my kids attended in the early 1980s. For a few years she also watched my kids when I had to jump on airplanes during my corporate days. When she was in Marquette attending a conference the other day, she saw my agate book while in Snowbound Books. She then gave me a call and visited for a day on her way back down state, where she is a school administrator. It was awesome to catch up after 27 years! I was also able to show her around our end of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. Thanks, Sasha, for a great reunion!
First we stopped by 12 Mile Beach and had a picnic dinner.
Next, the Hurricane River.
And, finally, the Log Slide.
Then last night I went on a beach hike and had a picnic dinner with friends, Jamey and Lois Fite. We were glad to see that the beach has recovered a bit. The sandy section is a little wider.
That is, except to the east of the beach we visited.
There is not as much driftwood as there was a few years ago, but still there are impressive logs and stumps.
Mink tracks on the beach.
The waves were rotating in at a weird angle.
The fall colors continue to build....
