so here's a detailed rundown of our...vacation. I'm still getting used to that word. we've never actually gone anywhere 'just because' in our entire marriage. it's always been for some occasion or to visit someone or to have a meeting. but we camped near Saugatuck for two nights last week and it was WONDERFUL.
we camped at Ely Lake Campground, which is a county park located on some very sandy seasonal roads. at times, it felt like we were driving on snow. there were (quite stinky) pit toilets and a hand pump for water and some rambunctious raccoons who actually OPENED our cooler on the second night, which we had stupidly left out. but it was pretty and quiet and really cheap--only $10 a night. we had a whole camping loop to ourselves...
