I realized I've neglected this space because of other things, things I need to let go of.
Today's photos: from last June, a weekend escape to Saugatuck, Michigan. It's a wonderful place to visit - with quaint shops, a vibrant art community, sand dunes and access to the sandy beaches along Lake Michigan.
Right in the middle of the town is a lovely garden square:
Farmers Market
Saugatuck Dunes State Park - You have to walk a little over a half a mile from the parking lot, but when you see the glistening lake through the trees, you know you have arrived.
Further to the south you can climb the stairs at Mount Baldhead Park - it's over 300 stairs, but worth the view at the top, looking down at the Kalamazoo River
On the backside of the stairs, the sandy path takes you right to Oval Beach, one of the very popular beaches of Lake Michigan.
It might be time to plan another weekend getaway there!
