We took a drive to Lake of the Clouds in the Porcupine Mountains State Park. South Boundary Road is like no other road I've been on.
Half way there, Mike and I switched, so that I could drive since I was beginning to get seriously car sick. I have never gotten car sick as a driver before, until yesterday that is. Every time you drove along a curve in the road to the left, you would then subsequently have to curve to the right. Then go up and then go down. Then hit random areas of poor-man speed bumps, rectangle areas in the road half heartedly filled with asphalt. The worst of it was when there were hilly, curving, bumpy areas of roadway all at once.
I was green by the time we stopped.
The Lake in the Clouds is absolutely breathtaking and can no way be captured properly on film. The park services have built a great boardwalk to allow safe viewing of this 1 mile long lake cradled between mountains. We had a fun lunch overlooking the lake.
We won't discuss the incident of the stolen gloves, which caused some disruption to this day.
We traveled to Ontonogan where Bits and Daddy played at a playground on the shores of Lake Superior. After may trips up steps and down slides, it was off to dinner at a little place called Syl's Cafe. Warm coffee and slightly unhealthy food ended the day nicely and with that food in our bellies we opted for a less stomach rolling road and took 64 to Bergland and then 28 home.
