Day 13, Thurs, Sept 15: Twelve Mile Beach Campground at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore

Low of 49 last night so had to have some heating in coach (55).  Our solar bank is not doing much for us here at all due to the shade from tall trees so we are running generator a couple of hours per day when most people are out. We were looking forward to a good solar test but that is yet to come. Having no wifi or cell service is a blessing and a curse…getting stuff done that I might ignore otherwise but out of touch with loved ones. David tried the cell booster and NOPE.

 

Woodland Campground in Grand Marais provided us with wonderful $1 showers, a hardware store trip, and cell service/wifi to catch up on family, phone calls, emails. We have also used rv for showers but we have decided to NOT go out to dump so are being really frugal with what goes in grey tank.

 

Something that I have not found and answer to is this?  Why are there so many wild apple trees in spotty locations throughout parts of Picture Rocks National Lakeshore (really near Grand Marais, Sable Falls area)…like roadsides along with dense forest.

 

Chili for dinner and a nice walk on the beach with Mali dog...she enjoyed running free on the beach immensely as there were no people around. Chasing the birds when they are around is her best game.  She did manage to catch a squirrel that was somehow down at the beach (water?) and he was really close to her when she nabbed him…no long run (she is FAST)…guessing she caught him unawares…yikes.
