Time for a walk!

Bob and I enjoy finding places to walk in our area.  We are blessed with lots of parks and trails to hike. After our long winter, we were able to get out for the first time and try a place that was new to us. It had beautiful trails, so we'll definitely be back!



This park is close to Lake Michigan so there are sand dunes at the entrance.





Great walking trails!


















I love seeing all those tall, straight tree trunks.






It'll be fun to come back when everything is green. Right now, the leaves are just starting to pop.

  7. We did some walking too during this weekend! 10 kms and it was good with sun and fresh air on the long sea front! When my husband will retire it will be our favourite past time too ! Enjoy your week!

  11. Wonderful photo of you and Bob. The tall straight trees are fascinating so I can see why it would be so nice to walk this trail. We do not have trails like this near us. We do have a park with a walking trail, but after walking it SO MANY times, you kinda want a different view for a change. Must still be a bit chilly up there..

  15. This looks like such a delightful place to walk. Glad you could do it together and that's such a cute picture of you two.
    I keep forgetting that there are dunes by the Lake. What an amazing country we live in.

  16. That really looks like a perfect walking place. Do you know what kind of trees those are? It will be interesting to see how it all looks when the leaves come back. I bet it will be really shady and beautiful. I know you are glad to be able to get out and about and enjoy some fresh air! Glad those trails are not in the flood zone! Lovely post!!

  21. Mari, thank you for sharing your walk, it looks like a wonderful place for walking. My folks had a house that Dad built back in the 50's that was about a block an a half from Lake Michigan with woods all around. We had to climb over a dune to get to Lakeshore Drive were all the gorgeous homes and the lake where. It was a get playground for a kid. Your photos brought back memories, except we didn't had paths like that back then, LOL Those dunes where great for sledding in the winter, too. ❤️
