Weekend

It was my birthday on Saturday so we went away for the weekend. I didn't watch either the wedding or the FA cup Final. We spent the weekend up at a state park - Ludington - in a mini-cabin. We've camped there before but I thought I'd treat myself and book a mini-cabin for the weekend. Good thing as it was quite chilly at night. The place had heat and electricity - even a microwave and a fridge! We found out while we were there that it is available even in the middle of the winter when it's really cold and snowy. We're contemplating renting it overnight in the winter. It was really, really warm. We did sit outside a little while at night with our first fire of the season.


It's really small but does sleep five. There is a bunk bed with a double on the bottom and single on the top and another set of bunk beds. Also some chairs and a small table. It was perfect for us as we were out and about more than in the cabin.

We didn't do the walks we were going to do - there is a ridge walk up some very steep hills and another through sand dunes. I knew I couldn't do them so we did some easier - but no less beautiful - walks.




It was raining when we left on Saturday but by the time we'd arrived the rain had stopped. Fog was rolling in along the lakeshore and into the woods, but later cleared off and we had some sunshine before the clouds rolled in again. It was so nice to get away for the weekend.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
