We lef
We paused by the turnoff to the dirt road that we shouldn’t have taken last time. What were we was I thinking?
After smartly driving the long way around the unfortunate dirt road, we arrived in the campground.
The campground is on the wrong side of the river, but a short walk over the bridge 
leads to the beach.
The river itself can be still as a mirror
It looks almost unnatural.
The beach itself is long
and has the most amazing array of beautiful rocks.
We walked all the way to the mouth of the river and watched how river meets lake.
It is a dramatic encounter of motion
and colour.

This plaque illustrated the remoteness of this place.
We stayed on the beach until the sun set,
the moon reflected in the river,
as we made our way back to our campsite in the dark,
We had a pleasant and uneventful night.
We were so happy that we made the effort to get to this campground. It has one of the coolest beaches and an abundance of agates. We will probably be back.
We made our way back toward Mackinac Bridge,
stopping for pasties and smoked white fish, the local delicacies.
The Mackinac Bridge appeared before us,
And we crossed the 8,038 metre span and made our way home.
This concludes our trip to the Upper Peninsula. We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and/or Hanukkah, and we are wishing you all a very Happy New Year!
