Pictured Rocks Boat Tour
In spite of the Covid-19 restrictions, we were fortunate enough to be able to take a boat tour (50% capacity) from Munising to the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. We all masked up and away we went (after tossing back some Dramamine)! Before we even left port, one of the twins was down and shortly thereafter, 2 more decided it was the perfect time for a nap as well. I couldn’t really blame them, but it was a bit chilly even though it was mid-July. The timelapse I captured was the return trip back to Munising and was truly stunning. Take a watch and let me know if you’ve been to the upper and what your favorite places to visit have been.
Family Vacation - Where in the world am I?
We arrived! The journey wasn’t pretty, but we made It! I quickly realized that we most definitely should’ve given all 4 of the munchkins a double dose of Dramamine! After 2 “episodes”, a pit stop in West Branch, lunch in Mackinaw City we arrived in Grand Marais for a week of exploring what I lovingly refer to the wrong peninsula!
Lots of adventures to come this week as we explore Lake Superior, waterfalls, fresh water springs and eating entirely too much food (see pic below for photographic proof)!
Dinner was a success!
We’re looking forward to exploring, so please comment with all the suggestions you can for things and places for us to go! Cheers to exploring the “wrong” peninsula!
See you tomorrow!
Independence Day and Hitting the 'Reset' Button
What a crazy ass year it has been! Seriously… 2020 feels like what 2012 was predicted to be and while I cannot believe it is already July, it feels like it’s taken a decade to get this far. I’m crossing my fingers that we’ll see a much calmer second half to 2020, but that may just be wishful thinking.
This morning I’m sitting here listening to some music and just trying to relax before the hectic holiday plans kick into gear.
Earlier this week, my family and I were able to get away for a few days and it was a nice way to get out of the daily grind and hit the reset button as a family. We tried out our first ever AirBnB and we absolutely loved it! It was right on Lake Huron with our own little private beach and views for days!
Family Picture in Lexington!
I’m showing a few houses to a client later today and then meeting the family at our first party of the day! Here’s hoping you and yours can get out and enjoy the holiday and in spite of the challenges the world is facing, spend some time with those that matter most!
Happy 4th of July!
