Home Again/Weekly Winners

We are home again. Got home yesterday and even though we were only gone for 6 days, we saw a lot of beautiful things. Anyway, more pictures and may as well do the weekly winners, too! Click on any of these pictures to make them bigger so you can appreciate the beauty!


A light house in St. Ignace. We spent the first night there on the way up. Had a nice walk on the boardwalk and an awesome fresh whitefish dinner.


This is Alger Falls. Just a very small falls on the side of the road, literally! Rich just pulled over, I jumped out and took a few pictures! It was pretty though!




These two pictures are of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Munising. We took a 2.5 hour boat cruise around the shoreline. It was beautiful and very photogenic! I took a ton of pictures.

This is Munising Falls in well..Munising!



These two pictures are of Canyon Falls and the river leading to it. It was very pretty and very loud!


This is Copper Harbor. It is the most northern town in Michigan and the farthest we drove. It's a pretty little town with not a whole lot going on!



We took a drive up Brockway Mountain in Copper Harbor to take this pretty picture. We were 726 ft. above lake level and 1328 ft. above sea level. All I know is were were way up there!!


This is just a small island in the middle of a inland lake we passed. It's nothing special, I just like the way it lookes against the setting sun.


And lastly, our trip meter when we got home. Lots of driving. Good thing gas prices went down to a stunningly low $3.85 per gallon! *insert sarcasm here*

  2. Yes, glad you're home safe and sound. Wow, the pictures are AWESOME!! Ya'll did a lot of driving, I see. And, yeah I notice the *sarcasm*; I sure hope things start to balance out sooner than later. But, better than over $4.00 I reckon. :)

  4. Isn't it frightening that $3.85/gallon feels "cheap"? :)

  7. Great pictures, Jeanette!

    We're in the middle of a trip here too, and I also noticed how 'cheap' gas is, especially compared to home (Canada). I'm filling my tank at a mere 3.79/gallon today! Yay!!! (yay?)

  11. Great photos, I really like the lighthouse!

    We were away last week, too -- and were surprised to see gas had dropped 20 cents, to $3.79. And yes, I'm excited about how "cheap" it is!

  12. All great shots of your trip but my faves are the waterfall ones~amazingly beautiful!

    Yeah, I agree about gas prices & it's sad! That's the government's plan though to make us "think" that that's low; especially after paying $4/more/gallon for so long! It stinks!!
