Algonac State Park, Marine City, MI




Hey there folks! Let's check out: Algonac State Park, Marine City, Michigan ...if you know anything about the hubby & myself ...we love so many amazing states ...here are a few that really mean so much to us: 

1. Virginia & West Virginia, 
2. Montana & Wyoming, 
3. Maine & Michigan 

... those are our top 3. So every time we get to Michigan ...it is like we are home again. There is not a location in Michigan we have visited that has not made us love it even more. This state park is just so amazing. Check out how close that water traffic is to the campground. You can just watch it go by ...so cool. & Right over that water way is Canada!! SO Close, SO Cool!! We saw tugboats, huge barges, tiny boats, all sorts. I think that is a huge reason why the fiberglass rally has continued to be held there over and over! I am one who enjoys going to new rallies every time, we have yet to go to the same one over, but you know what? I think I would consider going to this rally again next year just for the view, the people, the amount of events around there to check out!!! One of the most important pieces of that puzzle, how much we love Canadians. If you wanna know why? I would be glad to tell ya why, But the Americans might be a bit jealous or envious??! We Love Canadians oh so much, I just hope they love us just as much?!!! ( ;

The 2nd shot is a bike way / walk way that you can walk or bike along right a hop skip and a jump away from the state park. It is so neat, I only wish it was a longer trail. So fun!! Gorgeous views!

Thank you for stopping by. Hope you are well and having a great week so far. Take Care! Be Well & Be Blessed! Beth ( ;

So happy you can do so much traveling! Glad Virginia is high on your list! We consider it our "second" home. Alabama is our first. We always thought we would retire to Virginia, but life is full of twists and turns! Have a great week!

It does look like a very pretty area. - I think it's great you have favorite spots to visit. Have you ever visited Washington State? I think you would fall in love with it.

"Bar U Ranch" , National Historic Site. Established in 1882, it was huge ranching operation  "even more info here." .  if you know anything about me, you will know I have always wanted to live on a farm, own a farm, have horses, cows, dogs, cats, garden, fields, quiet & peace the whole 9 or is it 10 yards. I want a mountain view like in the movie "Legend of the Fall" .  so when we got the chance to visit this location I really enjoyed seeing how the ranchers came in a took over the whole ranching/cattle business. it was hard work, long hours but if you had the right team you would do just fine. the shot over the campfire is a pot of coffee & hot water. the lady, let me see, i think her name was Greta, that could so be wrong but it is what is popping in my head this moment. she was great at telling the story. these men would all do different jobs. the chef would run with all his team ahead of the folks to set up and get

( : Where do we even start?, I continued to say to my hubby throughout our trip to Washington, Oregon, northern CA back in August 2015, that I wondered how I could take a picture of the whole tall tree? The trees in in the eastern US are huge, but the trees out west are gigantic, massive, huge!! There are .... THEY ARE! ...how do I even begin to show a picture of these awesome trees? I don't own a fancy camera just a normal point and shoot. How do I express to you the magnitude of how tall these massive trees are? they are huge!!! & will you
