Last weekend, we had this spontaneous idea (I always did), to drive up north, enjoy the view and relax. We did. we left early morning, and drove on scenic route, through many cities, Pinconning, Tawas, Standish, Au Gres, Au Sable, Onaway, Alpena, up to Rogers City. It was a very relaxing drive, specially when I don’t have to drive ;o)
I was curious to see my Boss house. so we drove by it. it’s a very convenience house, very hommy, dark red paint, very nice. I like the fact that it’s near the beach, but was a bit concerned with the fact that it’s less than 20 yards from a huge electricity tower.
There were many public beaches, and we stopped by at 2 of them, they were lovely! I love the view, love the blue water. We forgot to bring our swimsuit, I feel bad. But soon recover, knowing the lake is so cold. I guess, after being frozen during winter, it never has enough sun nor hot air to warm such a large amount of water in the Big Lake.
we were committed to our diet, so we did not snack anything during driving time. we just had water. Except for some fruit we bought at a farmer’s market during our journey.
overall, I had lots of fun. mostly relaxing moment. We did not bring camera, for a purpose. We want to deeply memorizing these beautiful scenes.
My most fave moment was, when I sat down with Bill’s arms around me, and we both facing the deep blue lake…. It was lovely, memorable and unreplaceable.
