Ludington


































































On the road again! One of the favorite annual camping trips for the family is Ludington State Park.

The first night's sunset looked like it was going to be lame, but at the last minute there was a beautiful explosion of color!

We always enjoy the lake walk, this year we saw more wildlife than ever! A swan had made her next right by the bridge, there was a crane calling for his mate, and there were chipmunks everywhere too!
It is always nice to sit around the fire and enjoy catching up on each other's company. Biking up to swim at the beach and the dam was nice too. The ducks were very bold in the swimming area looking for food. We also walked to the dunes. One night we had ice cream on Oma - that was really a treat!

And yet, the best laid plans of mice and men so often go awry! As you can see in the last picture - we are waiting along the side of the road for AAA to bring our smoking trailer bearing to somewhere it could be fixed - now that messed up or afternoon nicely! But as you can see, we really know how to wait out a problem. :)

OH MY GOODNESS! The photo of Sarah & your Great Aunt Beth in the Ludington sunset is amazing: I can also see my Aunt Hildred and my Oma when I look at Beth's profile. Shelli, can you send that .jpg to me? Thanks, Aunt Ellen
