Another weekend - and another day trip to Lake Michigan. Frankfort and Elberta are two of our favorite shoreline communities on Michigan's west coast. The beaches are beautiful, the people are wonderful, and the two-hour drive isn't hard on a sunny spring day.
 |
| Karen decides she's going to get adventurous and check out the breakwall that separates the calm harbor waters of Betsie Lake from Lake Michigan. |
 |
It's a long way out there, but the view of the Frankfort North Breakwall Light is very nice.
 |
| The light, built in 1912, is a symbol of the region. |
|
 |
| On shore, we met retired humanities teachers Dan, left, and Carole Reznich of Higgins Lake, who love to spot passing lakers. |
 |
| Far beyond the breakwall, a laker heads downbound. |
 |
| Karen primps a little as she prepares to take a selfie on the beach. |
 |
| That's nice. |
 |
| She loves her newly spiffed-up platinum hair! |
 |
| For dinner, we went to the Cabbage Shed in Elberta. Local food, craft beers and general wonderfulness. Bluegill, garlic mashed potatoes and steamed, fresh asparagus. We'll be back. |
