Ludington Camping Trip

Ahhh, to get away and into the woods of northern Michigan!!! To not have to plan homeschooling lessons, but to enjoy the lessons as they come. To see the sun rise over the sand dunes and watch it set over Lake Michigan. And to feel the COLD air blow off the lake - BURRR. Camping in northern Michigan in May does have it's advantages, and disadvantages! One there were not many people around, but two we had to bundle up in our fleece to stay warm. We enjoyed a wonderful week of camping at the Ludington State Park. We spent time geocaching, walking, fishing, building camp fires, eating smores, and even got my daily workouts completed.

Even the dog got to go camping this time. Saturn loves camping, just like we do!
B spent an entire morning fishing for the invasive species - GOBY! As he pulled them out of the water, he would throw them into the woods. There are signs all over the park that encourage you not to put these fish back into the water. B was just doing his part. Count that as community service for this morning.

While B fished, grandma and I stood in the sun soaking up with warmth and gabbing the morning away.
