Today started out as a good photo day. I'm in EST now and had to wait until nearly 8 a.m. to get the dawn light. I spent the night in a room right on the water in Copper Harbor (Lake Superior). You can't see the frost on the grass, but it was really cold!
The little town of Copper Harbor is at the very tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula in northern Michigan. I spent most of the day driving south and down the west side of the peninsula. The beaches were very pretty.
This white sandy beach was at Eagle Harbor, Michigan.
All the small lake side towns have cemeteries that are at least 100 years old.
I watched the local birds around the water in Eagle River. It's always sad to see a dead one but it does give a chance to see them up close. The rocky beach is a favorite for agate hunters. Either the sand is rocky or covered with autumn leaves and even a floating apple - but the most pretty is where the creek meets Lake Superior.
By late afternoon, I reached Ishpeming on the Upper Peninsula. Yooperland is a huge tourist store.
The grounds around the store is a museum of old cars, farm equipment, ski doo's and stuffed animals and people in comic situations. It's nuts.
