the leelanau peninsula was really beautiful, and i'm sorry to report i don't have pictures of the lovely forests we drove through, the many deer we saw (two of them fawns frolicking in a field!), the vineyards we visited, or the cute towns we walked around in. i do have a few pictures of the dunes, though.
one of my favorite things about hiking across the dunes was spotting different kinds of wildflowers. of course i have no idea what any of them are called, but i was surprised by how many of them there were, just growing out of the sand.
on our last night in the dunes, we took a scenic drive which led to panoramic views of lake michigan. the lake looked enormous, which it is. it's hard to believe it's the same lake we saw in chicago and at sylvan beach, and now here in st. ignace (though we can see huron now, too!)
crossing the mackinaw bridge yesterday, i felt like we were entering a new and foreign land. it's exciting up here! we'll post more about it soon.
hope everyone is doing well.

That is a way cool picture of your shadows. They're all a pleasure to look at - tranquil, calming - but that's my favorite of this batch. I think my granfather and his wife went to the UP this weekend - see an old man with a walker around? They live in Whitehall, MI in the summer. Looks like you're having a great time!
Love, Jessie
