This week-end, we went for a drive up the lake road, known as the Lake Huron Circle Tour. The weather was on and off rain, but when we hit the turn out, it was beautiful. We live in Michigan, the land of the Great Lakes, with Lake Huron being one of the most beautiful blue lakes around as you can see from the pictures.
Lake Huron runs up the eastern side of the state. Unfortunately, unlike the western side of Michigan, people are allowed to build homes on its shores. Little is left, like this turnout, for the public to enjoy. There are some beaches, but more and more land is taken up with private property.

I love living a mile west of its shores, and an actual public beach. We can also enjoy the cool breezes that blow from the east, offering some relief during the summer.
