Here are the remainder of the pictures from our time at
the Tahquamenon Falls...

shallow spot in the river into a fairly deep spot.

yoga.

2012 and

Jayden found this fantastic little "squirrel slide" in the side
of a tree stump.

driving.
|
It was a long day to this point, but as darkness settled
in over St. Ignace, I decided to take a drive to the scenic overlook that is
located just west of the campground to see what kind of shots I could get of the
bridge. While I took a few photos, the one below was my favorite.
Scenic Overlook

A view of the Mackinac Bridge from the scenic overlook.
|
Since Tyler, Drew, and I were slightly disappointed with
the view of the bridge from the scenic overlook, we decided to head back down to
the Bridge View Park to take some more pictures. Unfortunately for us, it was
closed in preparation for the Bridge Walk tomorrow, so we headed down the dirt
road that runs along the shoreline of Lake Michigan. We found a nice spot and
pulled off to the side to take these shots...
