We were sitting at home enjoying the warmth of the sun and thought a walk along the channel would be a good thing to do today. So in the car we hopped, drove to the channel parking lot, and got out for a stroll along the channel.
Big surprise! While the sun was warm and seemed to be shining upon us, the air was quite cool. Looking toward the Lake Michigan was a thin veil of fog. In fact, the lake wasn't visible at all. We headed out to find the lake but as we got closer the fog got thicker. When we got to the break wall area the moisture was dripping from the trees. We grabbed a few snapshots and headed back toward Muskegon Lake.
Ahead of us now we could see the sun on Muskegon Lake, the skyline of Muskegon, and many fishermen out in their boats. We walked through the channel campground. Where we were entertained by the symphony of bird song, the croaking of bull frogs, the honking of overhead geese, and the constant back sounds of the peepers. Quite an enjoyable day, and as always, mystified at the wonders of nature in Michigan.
