Michigan, you caught me by surprise - I wasn’t prepared for your beauty.
Daylight until past 10pm and the insane skies before dark, the odd elegance of Detroit, Muskegon and the charm of its local life, the sunsets on Lake Michigan, the swims in pristine waters, the roads nestled between lakes and forests in the Upper Peninsula (the UP if you want to sound like you’re from here... which I kinda want now), I just can’t get enough.
So much so that I ended up booking a ferry last minute to get into Isle Royale’s wilderness on Lake Superior, to hike and camp for 4 days and 3 nights. Not sure how ready I am to carry all my gear and food and water, but I couldn’t be more excited about this new adventure within the adventure.
*Spoiler alert as this post never went through due to limited service : I had to share my (filtered) drinking water with a few moose swimming in the lake, but I made it.
