I had to go to Ludington today... Almost every time I go downtown I "drive through the beach," which means taking the one-way road through Stearns Park. There was a cold, cold wind. The snow fence was installed for the winter several weeks ago.
Oh, you thought all that beautiful beach was natural? Well, it is, but it takes a lot of work to keep it near the water.
The sand keeps trying to leave with every little (or big) breeze.
Are you talkin' to me?

All the effort paid if we manage to have a beautiful beach.
We all take the beautiful beach for granted. But it takes a lot of work and money to keep it that way.
Good post. I didn't make it to Lake Erie once this year.. Hope you are doing well
There's nothing like the beach, even on a cold windy day it's gorgeous.
It's a beautiful place. I don't know anything about maintaining beaches, so I find it funny that they have to bring errant sand back. :D
Great shots and I love the "Are you talkin to me" it's perfect for the photo. Beach maintenance takes alot of work. There were weeks of work being done at our Ocean beach here and finally, it looks great.
rainfield- since it's the biggest tourist draw, the effort will be made.
Russ- Keeping it clean is a constant battle. Keeping it in place is more seasonal.
Hi Joe- o, sorry about that. I need to "visit" you.
Ann- it is a special place
Ivy- It IS funny. It's taken very seriously as part of the tourism economy, but it's still funny.
Jo- Thanks! It's just one of the thousands of gulls here. But fun.
