Dune Buggy Ride

On Sunday, we went to Silver Lakes, MI to take a dune buggy tour.  This was a definite highlight of our trip.  We actually got to ride on the dunes, enjoy the scenery, and appreciate the humor of our tour guide.
This is the dune buggy that you ride in.


This is our tour guide....he was fantastic!!


 A photo opportunity on the dunes!



You can see the trails in the sand and it was a beautiful day on Lake Michigan!!

Saturday Night

On Saturday night, we stayed in Muskegeon, MI at the Shoreline Inn.  We didn't have reservations but we found this great hotel with a pool, a view of a lake, and a breakfast in the morning.
The sitting area with the view of Lake Muskegeon and the sofa that turned into a queen size sleeper bed.

Another view from the room.

The other half of the room with the king size bed.

Michigan Dunes

On Labor Day weekend, we took a trip to the Michigan Dunes!!  All of us had a blast!!  On Saturday, the weather was cool and windy but sunny.  We climbed the dunes at Warren Dunes State Park.

Even Jim got in on the action!

I love seeing all of the colors of Lake Michigan.

He cracks me up :)

  Trevor had trouble falling asleep on Monday night.  This is unusual for him.  On Tuesday night, he said to me, "Mom, I know why I couldn't sleep on Monday night.  On my Axe deodrant that I use it says may cause female attraction and late nights.  That's why I couldn't fall asleep!!"   
 
  I am still laughing today :)
