On August 13, we took a break form the farm and headed up to the UP of
Michigan for some camping along the shores of Lake Superior. We met
up with friends to continue a traidition that started back in the 80’s.
We have taken a family picture at this sign every summer. It is fun to look
back and see the changes in our family over the years.
One of the highlights of camping is cooking and eating!. We brought along
our griddle and did a Wrangler Breakfast for all the families.
This year we experimented with Ducth Oven cooking. One night we made a
mexican dip and the next we tried a Triple Berry pie! It turned out great.
Another first was making pizzas on the griddle.
We spent most of the afternoons relaxing on the sand beach but one day we
headed up the river to one of the waterfalls. Just down river from one of the
falls is a spot where the river gets narrow, the water is deep, and the sides are
high. This was Madeline’s first year to take the plunge.
Each evening we headed down to the rock beach to watch the spectacular
Lake Superior sunset.
Sounds like it was a ton of fun. I really wish I could have been there. Maybe next year…
