good for the heart

I seriously need to invest in a kayak and live near the water when I am older. Yesterday, my friends and I drove 2 1/2 hours to my happy place, Port Austin. While we were up there we kayaked, swam in Lake Huron, and walked the pier. Living in Michigan has it's ups and downs, being able to swim in a lake whenever you want is one of those ups.

I love the adventure that the Great Lakes hold and I truly cannot see why someone wouldn't want to experience it. 

Port Austin was a great last adventure for my friends and me, since in less than a week we will all be going off to separate colleges and moving on with our lives. I cannot wait for more adventures with these girls, and I am going to miss spending my days with them! 

I'll be back this weekend with a free gift for you along with a journal excerpt! Until then, enjoy these photos of me at Lake Huron and plan an end of the summer trip!
