This is September!
Welcome to the beginning of fall in the Northland!
Originally I had written a very beautiful entry about the last two weekends, but blogger hates me and did not save, which cause me to get angry. Very angry.
Last weekend I spent an exciting day hiking a 6 miles in the Porcupine Mountains and then another 2 in Paulding, MI.
The Porkies were amazing, mostly because of the sunset on the lake. I loved that sunset. It was insanely pretty. We hiked the last 2/3 of the trip in the dark without flashlights, but I didn't die, even though some tree roots tried to kill me.
Paulding wasn't as cold as it was when I went last May, and the light was pretty much the same.
I think it's a place that loses its magic after you've already been there once. maybe I need to wait a few years before I go again.
This weekend I spent Friday night to Saturday afternoon at a friend's cabin at Island Lake. We made "pizza" and "pies" in the fire and s'mores, of course. Then, Friday night, we went skinny dipping in the lake. After swimming around in the warm water, we quickly ran out and toweled ourselves before sitting in front of the remains of an hours-long fire. A "boyfriend dance" was performed. If you've seen The Secret Garden, you might remember the children chanting around the fire ring; this was very reminescent of that scene.
The next morning consisted of chocolate chip pancakes with boysenberry syrup and kayaking around the lake. Both were amazing. I splashed around in the water looking for rocks at Island Lake's "island," which has now been filled in enough to make it a penninsula. We ended the day with walking tacos for dinner.
