Yesterday we crossed into (and through) our last of the 22 states we're touching on this trip. Wisconsin was Wisconsin, not looking too dissimilar from upper Minnesota. Then darkness fell and we passed back into Michigan, this time into the upper peninsula. Pictured Rocks National Seashore was our stopping point for the night. We were hoping to find our campsite by 8 but didn't do so until 11, but that didn't dampen our spirits. We checked out the lake (it's huge and had surfable waves) and got wet, then started a fire and set up camp. Sauteed cheddar brats in chili were the bites du jour, hoping it would keep us warm in the early-morning hours. It did.
This morning marks another end to our journey. We've finished our leg to Route 66, then finished 66 itself, then finished the Pacific coast, and now we're ending our two weeks of camping. Tonight will be spent in a warm bed in Michigan and tomorrow night we should be home in Maine.
