Camping and Sand Dunes Anyone?? Sign me up!

After visiting the U.P. we made the long trek down to the west side of the state, near Lake Michigan. We met Scott's sister's family for a camping trip on Silver Lake. We enjoyed three nights of camping on Silver Lake which is bordered by sand dunes. On the other side of the Sand Dunes rests Lake Michigan. We had a blast camping with Ann, Vince, Ian, and Jenna. The best part was exploring the Sand Dunes. We all loaded into the truck, let some air out of the tires, and headed up the sandy road out to the great wide open of the rolling sand dunes. We bounced around in the back of the truck, manuvering our way up, over, and through the dunes until we arrived at the shore of Lake Michigan. We unloaded and spent the day lounging on the beach, soaking in the rays, and swimming in the refreshing water. The following day Vince decided that we needed to make even more memories at the dunes and he rented a jeep. My heartrate skyrocketed as Vince took us on a ride I will never forget. As Vince would say, "Nothing runs like a rental!" He was right, nothing runs like a rental, and we made memories that will last a lifetime!

The Bronco of our dreams...
