Lake Michigan Beach
Walking along the beach at Illinois Beach State Park today, I felt like a new chapter in our travels has opened up. We are headed into new and unfamiliar territory and that is always fun. Our goal at this moment is to get to Lynchburg, TN by October 23 for the Jack Daniels Barbeque...600 miles. I think it's one of those festivals where you get music and food and fun.
It is PD (pretty damn) cold here on the lakefront. Our campsite is just over a slight ridge from the shore. We saw mule deer moseying through the next campsite this afternoon. We walked the dogs for the first time in weeks and their noses went crazy. After dinner I heard some clatter outside and sent my hero out to investigate. A raccoon had overturned our waste basket and was hiding out under the coach. Little Adrienne went bonkers inside and was dying to get out to taste raccoon. Tonight is the first frost of the year but tomorrow is scheduled to warm up a bit. So the extra heater is on and we're cozy here in our little home.
