On Sunday Mike and I left for Platte River. It is a federal park located in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. It is a really nice campground with large camping spots.
Our first night I made beer can chicken on the fire. It tasted as good as it looks.
We do seem to eat very well.
Our first full day we went exploring around the area it is really pretty. The lake and beach are gorgeous.
After we got back we were able to take a hike from our campsite that went right to the beach. Also the dogs were allowed. The hike itself was not hard until we hit the sand and that was a little harder. Only because it was so darn hot. By the time we got to the water Maggie just layed in the water it was so funny. I of course did not get a picture.
Day two we went into Traverse City. It is a really cool town. Found a park and we had a little picnic on the water. The dogs were so good.
Wednesday was Mike's birthday and had planned on going back to the beach but the weather had a different idea. After some thought and looking at what was coming we both decided to pack up a day early.
It was not a long trip but a relaxing and fun one.
Up North will definitely be on the calender again.
