We are long time travel buddies, Lyle and I!

Always to trail-related things and this time is no exception. We are on the way to Fargo, ND for the annual North Country Trail conference/celebration- whatever they are calling it this year.
First milestone was to cross the Mighty Mac. Lousy picture, but you don't get stunning ones from inside a vehicle while crossing.

We had to stop to see the recently opened Cut River Bridge. It's been closed with a detour for so many years I was beginning to think it would never re-open. We ate lunch and walked a short trail that took us underneath.

The day was windy, although warm, but it was kicking up some good waves on the north shore of Lake Michigan

We saw a lot of this today. Yes, Lyle also has a little fiberglass trailer. Great minds seem to think alike.

Now we are settled in at a city campground for the night. Good travel day.

When I look at that pic of Lake Michigan's north shore, I can almost feel the breeze on my face, hear the sound of breaking waves and smell that odor of the lake.
