Weekend by Lake Michigan

It doesn't get any better than this!

We spent a glorious weekend with some old—and one new—friends in a picture book house built on the dunes overlooking Lake Michigan. It was the weekend of the asparagus festival: that vegetable featured largely in our delicious meals and many pounds made its way home with us. The conversation was lively, the wine flowed freely and we got a plentiful amount of exercise walking along the sandy beach and climbing the steep walkway over the dunes from the house to the shore.

Thanks Jerry and Sally for your splendid hospitality and for deftly leading us down to the "sunset deck" at the right time to enjoy the beauty of sunset over the lake.
